Weather Update - 6:30am 8/17/19
Good Morning, due to rain until around 10am this morning 9am matches are postponed 2hrs. That means that there is no play at the Plaza Tennis Center until 11am. If your match was originally scheduled for 9am, it is now scheduled for 11am. If your match depends on the outcome of an originally scheduled 9am match then it will also be postponed 2hrs. However, If your match does not depend on an earlier match and it is scheduled after 11am then the time remains the same. The Plaza Tennis Center will be open by 10am. I will be watching the weather and may make more weather updates in the near future so please check the tournament webpage or your email periodically in case more schedule changes are made. Sorry for any inconvenience, Adam Koch
