With most tournaments today the responsibility to check match times on the internet is the players. That said if a tournament is even worth its entry fee, if they change a match time that late and make it earlier they usually contact each player by phone. Of course if they don't get in touch with the player and leave a message who knows what could happen at the new match time. Players could show up late, etc.

I do agree that updating the website at 12:35 AM could be in bad form. Of course their could be extinuating circumstances, like a late match, computer website, illness or internet access issues and so on. I hope they are not change match times on you..........

Do you have any kids in this tournament ? Also who are the best kids in the 18's , who are the 3 or 4 you have picked to win it ?

its incredible the way tournament directors do that crap. In texas it happens more often then it should, TDs have no respect at all for the players. The quality of people running tennis here in the states seems to be declining every 10 years IMO

the tournament directors all are about making money ,you should see some of the trophies they give out now.. at the National Dunlop and same director as Quiksilver/Roxy ,these tournaments have sponsors and they gave a B/S novelty 6inch gumball machine and hot wheel car with a surfboard on it .. I guess it's ok because all trophies end up in the trash anyways on the long run..

no .. he's not that good to win the 18s.. I don't even think he could win the 16s.. 18s ,the winner should be the 2nd seed...SB

I think you saw they are on the same side of the draw----------although he outpowers /outsizes most of the field as he get closer to the finals the experiance vs talent will be a questioned that will be answered.

I'm working on him and hoping he will be ready for this weekend -----------his first 3 rounds were pretty easy but he faces his first tough seed in 2 more rounds,,,,,,,,,will see.

Although I'm working for the family right now I think he has a shot but why would you think he could win it?

Is this a weak tournament ? I was told it was a tough field.

I have a friend of mine in the G16's. . .who's more like a baby sister as our families are close. Her name is Jasmine and she's seeded 17. . .along with a bunch of other girls. LOL. Hoping our training has paid off so she can do well.

Anytime you have a 256 draw, the field is pretty weak at the tournament of this level. First three matches were with the kids who just are not good or consistent enough to even make enough balls. However, now it should get interesting. Seth Stolar will either beat Deiton or give him a very tough match. Either way, if somehow he gets by Stolar (which I doubt), he loses in the next round.

Deit may get by Seth and then maybe get by Shuhei S. but the roll should stop there...he's going have to play his very best to get by Reo or Warren Wood.. he might get lucky if W.W. beats Reo..

He has beat both of these players when he was smaller and younger then them -------now that he is a lot bigger and as strong if not stronger why will he now lose??
