They have moved one match indoors (think it's Sam's) the rest have been postponed until tomorrow!

Tennis Manitoba have just tweeted that it's the doubles that was moved indoors.

I always think it's a bit silly when no attempt is made to schedule matches such that players due to meet in the following round are likely to finish at a similar time and I thought it was particularly stupid when they scheduled one R2 match from each quarter for Wednesday. They must have been aware of the likely weather for Thursday when they did this too, which makes it even more inexcusable.

The result is that each of Friday afternoon's QFs (assuming the rain holds off for long enough for them to be played) will pit one player who has already had to play their R2 on Friday morning against a player who played their R2 match on Wednesday.

You'd think taking the most obvious steps to limit the possibility of this happening (in this case, scheduling one half of the draw for Wednesday and the other for Thursday) would be the first rule of scheduling, wouldn't you?

Great, thanks! Just noticed it on the tournament Twitter feed after you posted.

Sam first up on court 2 at 10 am local time and JoKo first up on court 3 at same time.

NB 2 pm local time and after suitable rest, Naomi plays Sam or Sawayanagi on court 2. If JoKo wins, she plays Imanishi NB 2 pm local time on court 3

Jade/Sam doubles is NB 6 pm local time on court 1 and Naomi/Olivia is scheduled for around the same time (but after rest as Olivia is still in singles action earlier).

I should be around for all of the singles and happy to do scores if anyone wants them?

Jo's match appears to have started but the scoreboard isn't going anywhere. Doubt it's a rain delay as the court 1 match is going on (Rogowska 5-0). Sam's match not on my scoreboard at all.

Was just going to post that she must have won as she's just come up vs Naomi on the scoreboard as an upcoming match. Thanks for confirmation!
