The following release comes directly from the World Team Tennis PR firm. I’m sharing it – with some editorial comment – due to the fact that so many former top college tennis players are on the team rosters this year – if I’ve missed anyone, please let me know. I hope you will support WTT if you have a chance to attend a match in your area!
The 44th season of World Team Tennis plays July 14-31 with the top four teams advancing to the WTT Playoffs at Orleans Arena at The Orleans Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. The WTT Semifinals are scheduled for Friday, Aug. 2 at 4 p.m. PT and 7 p.m. PT, followed by the WTT Final on Saturday, Aug. 3 at 4 p.m. PT. All three WTT Playoff matches will air live and exclusively on CBS Sports Network.
