The Summer Circuit is an open event — anyone including high-level juniors and adults can compete — but participants must be ITA Summer Circuit members. Enrollment for Summer Circuit memberships opens May 1st and costs $30.
Tournament registration will open on May 18th and is a first-come, first-serve process.
During the Summer Circuit, competitors will look to move up the Oracle ITA Summer Circuit Points Race to secure one of the top five spots. After each week of competition, players will be awarded points based on their finish in their respective tournaments. The Point Race will keep a running total and the top five players in each gender in the final standings will receive automatic entry into the Oracle ITA National Summer Championships and $600 in travel reimbursement for travel expenses incurred competing at Nationals.
The Summer Circuit will culminate at the Oracle ITA National Summer Championships in August. The singles and doubles champions will receive a wild card into the main draw of the ITA All-American Championships, and the finalists will earn a wild card into the qualifying draw (Players receiving wild cards must be returning, NCAA Division I student-athletes). Additionally, a $20,000 purse will be split evenly between the winners of each gender.
Are these events gonna happen?
The ITA is continuing to monitor the situation surrounding the COVID-19 virus. We realize this situation is a very fluid one with new information being shared daily. We have been listening to guidance from the CDC as well as guidance from the medical advisors of organizations like the USTA and NCAA. With that being said, the ITA is still optimistic in hosting the 2020 Oracle ITA Summer Circuit, whether that be a full or partial circuit. Clearly any decision to move forward will be guided by information from health professionals (including those advisory panels advising sports associations) as well as local, state, and national governmental and public health officials.
