There are TWO Round Robin flights where players will each participate in 3 (or 4) matches as assigned.  The draws were automated based on each player's WTN rating, with players being placed in level-based flights. 

Note the starting time for your FIRST MATCH.  Times for subsequent matches are "placeholders."  There will be natural, "as needed" rest breaks between each match and this will be dependent upon length of previous match, court availability, etc.  

Each player will play 3 (or 4) matches total.  A "match" for this tournament is one set to 6 games, with a 7-point tiebreak at 6-6.  No-ad scoring - where the receiver chooses which side to receive on the deciding deuce point(s).

There will be a CHAMPION declared for both draws, which the system calculates based on results.  There are built-in tiebreakers, including head-to-head, sets won, and percentage of games won.
