geddymonster Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) To me, it seems like it would make the most sense to do the Asian swing during that lull period after the Australian Open. The players are already down in Australia, so it wouldn’t be a huge lift to go to other parts of that region. Plus there would probably be better participation because the players are fresher at the beginning of the year. Then if they want tournaments between the U.S. Open and the WTA Finals, add some more in the Western Hemisphere (Vancouver? L.A.? Rio? Boston?) that way players aren’t having to traverse the globe in such a short time. Edited October 7, 2023 by geddymonster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pride4jc1222 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 The Western & Southern Open is staying in Cincinnati until at least the middle of the 21st century: https://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/38625796/western-southern-open-remain-cincinnati I guess they could move the Winston Salem tournament to Charlotte, or if Larry Ellison sells, BNP Paribas could be moved from Indian Wells to Charlotte.

pride4jc1222 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 https://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/38689509/billie-jean-king-lobbies-better-tennis-scheduling-combining-bjk-cup-davis-cup I'm glad that BJK is speaking up about this. When BJK speaks, you usually know that changes are going to be made. As I have said before, the fall schedule on the WTA side is a mess. If they aren't going to put a tournament of note (like the French Open or Indian Wells) in the fall, then they should just move the WTA Finals closer to the US Open, perhaps in late September. All the meaningless tournaments that are currently played in the fall can be moved to November, along with the BJK Cup, to begin a new season after the players rest up in October.

pride4jc1222 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 It's a shame that the fall schedule is horrid and not too many people witnessed Ben Shelton's first ATP Tour title. It would have been better if a big tournament, like Indian Wells, was going on right now and Shelton had won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
