Notes
July 28 Update
- Draws will be Posted on Wednesday(July 29th), with the first
rounds starting at 8 am due to draw sizes.
- All draws are final and we have done our best often times with
limited information in regards to seeding.
- All events other than Open will feature a match tie-break in lieu
of a 3rd set to accommodate our many players who are playing USTA
league and follow the same format and allow for a smoother running
of the tournament.
- "Seeding has been done by using the "Universal Tennis Rating"
system (Men's Open Events), the TDM auto seed function, and 2015
year-end rankings where available. In most divisions pertinent
information was not available and a straight draw was made without
seeding."
A big thank you to all of our tournament participants and we are
looking forward to seeing you all soon.
