<b>CONCEPT</b>
Each team (2 players) will have a total DUPR score to be under. They can be under the score in whatever way they see fit, so long as they meet the combined and individual requirements. We will have 3 brackets for Men's and Mixed, 2 brackets for Women's and the total DUPR ratings to be used will be DUPR 6.5, 7.5 and 8.5.
<b>FORMAT</b>
Teams will play a minimum of 5 matches. The format will be as follows:
- Pool-Play to Single Elimination
- Gold medal match will be best of 3
<b>TIMING</b>
Play may begin as early as 9:00 a.m. We will confirm our above schedule 1 weeks registration closes. We do this to ensure our tournaments run smoothly and are never delayed.
<b>RATINGS</b>
We use DUPR to ensure fair competition. The tournament director reserves the right to move any players who are in the wrong brackets. All scores will be submitted to DUPR.
Register for brackets matching your DUPR rating:
- 6.5 bracket: Max combined DUPR of 6.500; Individual Max DUPR of 4.099
- 7.5 bracket: Max combined DUPR of 7.500; Individual Max DUPR of 4.599
- 8.5 bracket: Max combined DUPR of 8.500
Players must stay under the brackets maximum allowed DUPR. No exceptions. Bracket adjustments based on DUPR ratings will occur actively throughout the tournament registration period.
<b><I>Important Notes on DUPR</b></I>
<I>- Self-entered DUPR matches will be manually reviewed and adjusted if necessary to prevent manipulation.</I>
<I>- If a player’s DUPR is NA or their score accuracy is below 60%, bracket placement will be at the sole discretion of the tournament director.</I>
<I>- The DUPR score at registration will determine the bracket a player is eligible to play in.</I>
<I>- Any player found to have multiple DUPR accounts or who creates a new account to enter a lower bracket will be immediately removed from the event without a refund, even if discovered mid-tournament.</I>
<I>- Any player signing up under a false name to hide a new or alternate DUPR account will be immediately removed from the event without a refund, even if discovered mid-tournament.</I>
<b>EXTRA</b>
Please note that if you are playing in a doubles event and your partner does not register within 7 days of when you register, you will automatically be moved to the waitlist. Your spot in the main event will NOT be saved. If (after you are both registered and paid for the event) there is room in the main event, you will be moved back to the main event. If the event has filled up in the meantime, you will remain on the waitlist until a spot opens up.
