We will be playing doubles first both Thursday and Friday morning. We used this format at the 2006 and 2007 events and received nothing but compliments. This format keeps players from leaving town early if they are eliminated from singles quickly. Doubles first also gets everyone warmed up for their singles matches. In order to do this we need to make the doubles draw Wednesday night. If you have a partner please let me know by email at tennisproken@yahoo.com or you may call 513-489-9700. You can check the competitor's list to see who is playing and who has already secured a partner. I can contact potential partners for you. If you do not intend to play doubles let me know so I may open up that spot to an alternate.

Please pay close attention when looking at the draw. If CHP is listed with your start time then you are playing at Harper's Point located at 8675 East Kemper Road, Cincinnati 45249. Harper's phone # is 513-489-9700. If "5SEAS" is listed with your start time then you are playing at Five Seasons Sports Club located at 11790 Snider Road, Cincinnati 45249. Five Season's phone # is 513-489-0700. As the draw sizes diminish we will play the matches exclusively at Harper's Point.

Airports - The Greater Cincinnati Airport and the Dayton Airport are both 45 minutes to an hour from our club. You may be able to find cheaper fares by flying into Columbus (90 minutes), Indianapolis (120 minutes), or Louisville (145 minutes.)
