The former number one seed was removed from the draw due to qualifying for Super Champs last weekend. Consequently, the # 2, 3, and 4 seeds were moved up one spot and Jerry Wu was moved to the #4 seed position. One player ended up with a bye and the first match times are now different for all those affected by the changes. All players are advised to check their draws for changes.

Due to the withdrawal by the original # 2 seed, the draw was reduced to a draw of 8 players and Lily Nolan was moved to line 8 as the new # 2 seed. Following USTA rules, by draw of all unseeded players, Laura Weise was moved to line 5 and Madison File was moved to line 9. The draws have been changed and do include the updated schedule. Please check the draws for potential new match times.

Due to one player being moved to Super Champ 16’s, the draw was reduced form five players to four players. Consequently, the draw was changed to a round-robin format. The new round-robin schedule is now posted. Please check the draws for new match times.

Excessive Overrule Guideline: The USTA Texas Officials Committee along with the Competitive Department has established a guideline in reference to excessive overrules as clarified in the Friend at Court. This guideline states "Once a player has been overruled for a second time in a match, they will be cautioned that after another overrule, they will be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct under the point penalty system."

Inappropriate umpire/spectator communication, whether it be about a ruling or any other facet of a tennis event is prohibited while a match is in progress. Being a parent, coach, etc. does not endow special privileges. With the only exception of the right to remove their own child from competition at any time, a parent or coach is merely a spectator.

USTA Texas "No Late Entries" Policy for Juniors Due to a new USTA Texas internal procedure, junior division players will NOT be able to register for a tournament after the online published deadline. We are aware that currently parents reach out via email or phone to the USTA Texas staff and/or tournament director requesting to be manually added to the tournament after online registration has closed. If a player misses the registration deadline, then he/she will not be permitted to participate in that tournament

Registration Confirmation: As a parent or player it is your responsibility to assure registration in the event. Regardless if you register on the website or mobile app after completing the registration you should visit the USTA web driven site and confirm your registration by finding the player in the applicants list. If you select to skip this process please be aware that should any malfunctions of the system occur, players will not be granted late entrance in the event due to a system error.
