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.
|
Days of Play: Tournament will start only on Thursday for Super Senior Singles draws that are large enough to require them to begin on that date. Tournament staff will endeavor to make the start times be as late as possible given the size of the draws and a factor for weather.
