Great venue with quality tennis on display

 

[matchplay]

This is the second-oldest tennis event in the United States and has a rich tournament history. First held in 1890 at The Hotel Del Monte in Monterey, California, the event was created to promote the sale of real estate on the Monterey peninsula.The original concept pitted the best players from the East versus those from the West. This coast to coast rivalry was the inspiration for the Davis Cup. Past Winners include Jack Kramer, Ted Schroeder, Bobby Riggs, Pancho Segura, Don Budge, Tony Trabert, Stan Smith, Bob Lutz, Arthur Ashe, Dennis Ralston, and John McEnroe and many other world-class champions.

if it is so prestigious, then why is there no prize money or TV or webcam coverage ?

Wonder what Harri Heliovaara is doing in the tourney. Last I had heard he was studying full time in Finland.

Maybe he couldn't find Nadal there? (hopefully not too cryptic :twisted

Why no seed for Card's Paige/Wilczynski? The duo won at USC last Friday and had triple match point at UCLA on Saturday when abandoned. God's gift to tennis: Trojans and Bruins.

Your sense of humor, right? Peter Smith has some serious game. I bet he's around a 5.5 doubles player. Van't hof is probably in his late 20's.

They will make the NCAA tournament, then they will have the last laugh. Anyway, is there any TV or webcam coverage of this great event ?
