Play starts at 4:00 p.m.?

Is it too hot too play at midday there? Or is there not enough of a fan base to get any turnout during working hours?

The 4:00 starts are only for the first two rounds and therefore is probably a more attractive ticket for a smaller and newer tournament to not have separate sessions. Once they reach the quarterfinals on Friday, they start at noon and go to two sessions. 1:00 start on Saturday for the first session, and then the finals on Sunday at 12:30 so I don't think they're worried about the heat as much as selling tickets.
