Catalina likes the schedule except that there are no tournaments in her continent :sad:

LTTS2: Tour Schedule UPDATED!

I can't wait for the start of the year. I have almost nothing to defend. :D

its great , glad Iceland is still there :D

great schedule! :yeah: Kirsten is looking forward to a full season :banana:

I hope Anne has a good season :scared:

cool :)

all is bonus points for Maggie till the grass season :D

all is bonus points for Maggie till the grass season :D
What is bonus points :confused: I thought this didn't have quality points.

for the weeks where there is more than one tournament, do you have to both go to the same tournament if you want to stay with that partner or temporarily find a different one?

What is bonus points :confused: I thought this didn't have quality points.:lol: no, I meant extra points since last year she didn't play the beginning of the season (no points to defend till the grass season) ;)
And yes, there are quality points (called bonus points) but only for slams and tiers I (A and B) and tiers II:

Bonus Points
Grand Slam
Ranked:
1= 100
2= 75
3= 50
4 - 8=25
9-16=10
Tier IA-1B-2
Ranked:
1= 50
2= 40
3= 30
4 - 8=20

:eek: Thanks for that Cyrille :kiss:

How did you not know we have bonus points? :o

the indoor season is too short. :sad:

the indoor season is too short. :sad:

:p Including the YEC with the indoor season, its the same as the other seasons ;)

damn Sonya will have to defend Antwerp (W) and SEC (F) points :bolt:

I have kind of a problem here :sad: I won't be here much within the next few weeks. I'll have internet access of course where I'll be but I will surely lack the time to think about points and to send some for Fed Cup to start with and SEC afterwards. Although I can arrange to send points to Kim who'll be team captain this time. If I remember right points have to be sent at every round in SEC no? Well it might be pretty difficult for me to send them everyday. So what is the solution to that? I can't and don't really want to pull out SEC but I can't promise to be able to be present at every step of it :shrug:

we only changed points once I reckon last year , just for the final ( had I not changed them i would have won LTT told me :sad: :mad: )

Yasmine :wavey:


We will have a thread on LTTS2: Season Ending Championships sometime in the near future. ;)

This thread will explain everything for you. :wavey:

Well the thing is I'll be able to send points as long as I've got them ready but not much more really. I'll have online access and everything but won't have time to think about strategies or anything. So I'll get a set of points ready and take them with me (or save them in a PM/mail to myself) and can send them when it's time. I'll do the same for Fed Cup.

And what is the near future Drew/Gary? :lol: cos I'm going away on thursday :p

After we have dinner tonight :p ;)

I will also be releasing the SEC Draw, midweek during the Fed Cup Final. ;) So this will also give everyone 3 days + to send points.

ok;)
I'll do my best to keep an eye on everything but I can't guarantee it :angel:
