RE: Week 24 - WTA250 - Nottingham, Great Britain Grass


Nottingham has for a long time had it in the broadcaster contractual rights that all WTA QFs will be played on Centre Court. Obviously last year there was a comprise that the last QF was moved to Court 1 to have Andy on CC with the Court 1 QF not starting before the 3rd QF on CC has finished.

However it does not matter what play is scheduled when so much rain is expected.

Some contractual obligation if it then goes out the window simply because Andy is there

Why are they starting so late? They should start as early as possible to try to get through the backlog.
