DRAW REMINDER
As a reminder, the singles main draw feeds into the consolation through the QF. All players who lose in the QF will be put into a QF Playoff for 5th/6th place. The FIC is played through the finals. There will be 3rd and 4th place matches for singles and doubles.

ON-SITE ALTERNATES
On-site alternates are those players on the alternate list who have come to the tournament site to be a last-minute replacement for a withdrawing player.
All on site alternates must check in at Col. Bill Barber Community Park (CBBCP) on Friday, November 27 by 7:45am. Any alternate arriving after that time will not be considered as an on-site alternate.
The order of the alternates is based on the original Alternate List published by the tournament, not a more recent National Standings List, and not in the order in which the players check in. On-Site Alternates may be admitted into the singles main draw to replace withdrawing players until the completion of the first round of play. Any player receiving a bye in the first round can also be replaced by an on-site alternate in the second round because this player has not yet played a match in the event. This does not apply to players receiving withdrawals or retirements as these are considered matches won. On-Site Alternates may not play in the Feed-In Championship unless they have first played in the singles main draw.
