ONLY THOSE PLAYERS WHO ULTIMATELY WIN THE EAST DRAW WILL TAKE HOME THE WINNING PRIZE!
Players who only played twice and are told their draw is done need to communicate to the site director that they are in need of their 3rd guaranteed match. Site desks get very busy and it's tough for site directors to keep up with those who have played 2 vs. 3 matches and WE WANT EVERYONE TO PLAY A MINIMUM OF 3 MATCHES! DEFAULT NO SHOWS & WALKOVERS count as a match played as points are awarded for these rounds by USTA TEXAS. However, if we can get you a 3rd match to PLAY, we will make every effort to do so. IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: You may play more than 3 matches if your draw dictates. NOTE: BYES count as a ROUND for directional draw purposes only and are not part of your 3 guaranteed matches.

Both the women's open level and mixed 4.0's will play a round robin event divided into 2 separate color draws...one RED, the other WHITE. One color division will have 5 teams, the other 4 due to an odd number of teams entered in the event. At the end of round robin play in each color/event, the top 4 teams will playoff. The last ranked team in the 5 team color event will not participate in the playoff.

Due to the size of the Women's 4.0 Doubles draw, all players will play Friday, July 24th. Women's open doubles and mixed 4.0 doubles will also have some 1st and 2nd round matches scheduled for Friday. Matches will be scheduled as late as possible to avoid work conflicts to the greatest extent possible. If you have a work conflict you MUST let me know prior to the draws being published on Monday.

Once draws have been published, you are encouraged to re-check them daily. Changes are continually made to the draws due to withdrawals, which may change your first round match time. Attempts are made to contact you if your match time changes, but not all competitors contact information is provided in the tournament software. For this reason, you are strongly encouraged to re-check draws up to tournament start.

Players will play 2 regular scoring tie-break sets with a deciding match tie-break (10-point COMAN) in lieu of the third set.
