Notes
UPDATE AS OF 8/29 @ 5:15 PM: The draws are now posted.
Please check the website for your match days/times. For the Back
Draw (Consolation Draw), there are a number of matches in each
division (except for the B18s) which may not need to be played,
based on the results of Front Draw matches (i.e., whether a player
in the Front Draw who receives a bye in the first round wins or
loses their first match, in the second round). We have listed the
times for those Back Draw matches, but please check with the
Tournament Director when you are at the tournament so that you can
understand whether or not that particular Back Draw match will be
played or not. If that particular Back Draw match is not played,
the player in the Back Draw will get a bye into the subsequent
round. If you have any questions, please contact Steve Haas at
630-660-1943, and we look forward to seeing you at the
tournament!
If you should have any questions, please feel free to call
either the Naperville Tennis Club (630-355-5600) or the Tournament
Director, Steve Haas (630-660-1943).
Meredith Pollack will act as referee.
Format: Matches will use REGULAR SCORING and a match
tie-break in lieu of a third set. Everyone is guaranteed two
matches.
