We're going out to Palm Springs for the Pac Life Open this year, and are wondering about tickets. We'll be there opening weekend Fri/Sat and Sunday day.
My family lacks the rabid hunger for watching tennis that I have, and aren't willing to plan to do both day and night sessions each day we're there, so my usually very cooperative wife is standing firm on not buying the full weekend ticket packages. Our current planned compromise is to buy day tickets for Fri/Sat/Sun and only purchase evening tickets for Friday or Saturday if we decide we want to stick around for the evening matches. I have a feeling we probably won't catch a night session, as my wife is gung ho for some nice dinners out on the town.
Anyone done it that way before, and any obvious down-sides? I presume (this is the opening weekend) that there won't be a problem getting tickets for night sessions that we decide to stay for. I know they may end up being "way up high" in the stadium the later we buy them.
And can someone define what is "day" vs. "night?" I can't find anything that tells the start/stop times for the day sessions and night sessions.
Thanks!
