Match format
Singles: All singles matches are best of 3 sets regular scoring unless we experience a rain delay. Doubles: All doubles matches are best of 3 sets regular scoring. In draws of 3 players or teams, a straight draw will be used instead of a round robin due to the fact this is a 2 day event. We will use a 10point tie break in lieu of a third set for singles if we experience incliment weather. All divisions are single elimination.
