THIS JUST IN – Breaking Results Saturday and Today
Very Busy Days as PD Resort Classic Cuts a Break From the Weather
HILTON HEAD ISLAND SC (TENNIS E-News) – With 143 players from 10 states in the draws, the Palmetto Dunes Resort Classic got the weather it needed to get going Saturday and continue today. Matches went to no ad scoring for the first two sets and then a 10-point tiebreak for the third if needed. Today, the format went back to regular scoring for semis and finals except for round robins which stayed at the earlier format.
Tournament Director Jackie Reynecke has a message for you:
“There were 74 matches played Saturday to get caught up and back on a semi-final/final (today). I would like to let all the players know who much we appreciated their understanding and cooperation in re-doing the entire draw on Friday afternoon/evening, then facing reduced formats on Saturday through the semifinal/final rounds and dealing with some court issues from the not so great weather this week.
Because of the volume of results over two days and interest in getting it to you quicker, here are the unedited match outcomes from both days:

NEW AGAIN IN 2009: Two years ago TENNIS E-News ran a well-received series of excerpts from "The Code, The Players' Guide for Unofficiated Matches". You have asked for a repeat? You got it.
Reader question: Can I call foot faults against my opponent when he makes an obvious foot fault?
USTA COMMENT 18.6: In a non-officiated match, the receiver or the receiver’s partner may call foot faults after all efforts (warning the server and attempting to locate an official) have failed and the foot faulting is so flagrant as to be clearly perceptible from the receiver’s side.
*Note: TENNIS E-News is not making up these items. All are taken word-for-word from USTA's "The Code" that can be found in the "Friend at Court" handbook or as a stand-alone leaflet -- available by going to http://www.usta.com and selecting "USTA Shop" and then "Books" on that page.
