New this year, the USTA LI Region Council will be supporting “No Cut Tennis” on the high school level by providing all members of no cut teams with blue wrist bands. USTA’s No Cut Tennis initiative encourages coaches and schools to allow all those interested to participate on tennis teams. According to the USTA, No Cut Tennis offers teenagers many benefits including allowing every child to have the opportunity to engage in healthy, lifelong ac- tivities in a safe and supportive environment with their peers. A no cut policy sends the message that developing kids, even the less talented and/or late bloomers, is important to the coach and school. All Nassau and Suffolk coaches who have a No Cut program are asked to contact Mike Pavlides, Massapequa HS Ten- nis Coach & USTA Long Island HS Representative, by e-mail at [email protected] and provide the following information: coach’s name and email address, school name and mailing address, and number of players on team. Each Varsity and Junior Varsity player will receive one wrist band. Teams are encouraged to wear their blue wristbands in April to show their support for Autism Awareness. Coaches are also asked to take a team pic- ture during the season of their players wearing the wristbands and email it to [email protected]; all photos re- ceived will be posted on the USTA Long Island web site and our social media. In addition, coaches are invited to share photos and stories of their teams that par- ticipate in community service projects dur- Commack HS, 2018 Suffolk Champs Nassau Singles Champs 2018 Nassau Doubles Champs 2018 ing the season.

  • 2020 Western & Southern Open Doubles Field
    Western & Southern Open Defending Champions Headline Doubles Fields CINCINNATI (Aug. 11, 2020) – Both the women’s and men’s defending champions are among the initial entries to play doubles at the 2020 Western & Southern Open, which will be held Aug. 20-28 at the USTA Billie Jean King Tennis Center in New York. The 2019 WTA doubles winners – Lucie Hradecka and Andreja Klepac – are joined by the ATP Tour champions – Ivan Dodig and Filip Polasek – to headline the early entries. Other notable entries on the women’s side include the teenage pairing of Cincinnati’s 18-year-old Caty McNally and 16-year-old Coco Gauff. Dubbed “McCoco,” the duo won a pair of WTA titles in 2019 – at Washington, D.C. and Luxembourg – and reached the US Open Round of 16. Elise Mertens and Aryna Sabalenka, who finished 2019 atop the WTA Porsche Race to Shenzen as the season’s No. 1 team, are also in the field. Reigning Australian Open singles champion Sofia Kenin, a 21-year- old American, has entered with former Western & Southern Open singles and doubles winner Victoria Azarenka. The top two teams in the ATP Tour doubles race are entered in the men’s draw. The No. 1 team of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah is returning after reaching two straight Western & Southern Open finals. They are joined in the field by the No. 2 team of Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo. The ATP Tour No. 1 ranked singles player, Novak Djokovic, has entered the doubles draw with countryman Filip Krajinovic. An additional five women’s teams and six men’s duos will join the fields through on-site entries, while the tournament will award three wild cards into each draw to complete the 32-team fields.
