Wow that is awful!

How do you get into the calendar to see all the events??

Pass! I tried submitting a feedback form to tell the silly buggers it was a counter-intuitive mess & asking why the hell they felt they had to fix it when it wasn't "broke" in the first place, but it wouldn't even let me do that! evileye

Miriambee · Futures level

I've just done a feed back form saying I can't find the calendars at all.

I have the calendar for the men (under Tournament calendar)

And the women and juniors are also there as a heading but the site for those has crashed/has not loaded.

However, under draws and results for each men's event, there's only draws, no results (obviously, you can see the results in the draw, but I can't find an actual list of the results????)

ADD: Suddenly the women's list has appeared!

Less information - more clicks - some info gone - the march of progress wink

With the WTA destroying their site I think the ITF felt they had to do something similar - but even worse.

Stopping users complaining is the first step - if there are no complaints then it must be wonderful. Big bonuses all round. wink

Largely keeping off the ITF site a) because I am very busy this week so no real time to get my head round it and b) because there will no doubt be initial glitches.

But I do see various comments around about different things being much harder to find. Err, well many will be initially, it's new, it's different.

Whether it's overall better or worse I will reserve judgement.
