Due to the incredible amount of entries in the men's 3.5, 4.0 singles, we did what we felt was best in order to accomodate all entries. In accordance with USTA rules, we have split the events into 2 smaller draws to assure all players had an opportunity to participate, as well as limiting Friday play as much as possible. Our tournament management software divided the categories into 2 randomly selected events.
