Tournament Events Each tournament must consist of a Singles Qualifying Draw, Singles Main Draw and Doubles Main Draw. In extraordinary circumstances, e.g. bad weather, the ITF Supervisor, in consultation with the ITF, may cancel or adjust a Tournament's schedule. 5. Tournament Week Except for indoor tournaments with sufficient facilities, the Singles Main Draw must be scheduled to begin no later than Tuesday and to finish no later than Sunday of the same week.
