Junior Davis and Junior Fed Cup Underway in Mexico; One-Day Showdowns on College Campuses; Kristi Miller Blogs from Madrid
I was hoping to have some results to report from the Junior Fed and Davis Cups in Mexico, but nothing has come through from the ITF yet. When it was held in Italy, the results were always available in the evening here, but San Luis Potosi, Mexico is in the Central time zone, so it may be the next day before results are posted.
The U.S. girls are the top seeds, the U.S. boys are seeded third, and the format is round robin, four groups of four, with the winners advancing to the semifinals.
The Tennis Recruiting Network posted an announcement today about a new concept of One-Day Showdowns at college campuses around the country. This is an opportunity for juniors to join college players and other adults in competition on campus, with college coaches serving as the tournament directors. Sponsored by the USTA and ITA, it is structured for maximum participation, with very low entry fees. For more information, see the usta.com website.
