I don't even get why this event comes AFTER the YEC and not before. The conflict with Fed Cup is the least of my problems with this entire thing. I think it's fair that everyone compete for the big dance the way it's done in the ATP. Why hold an event that is more of a "consolation" prize, a step down if you will for the players. It's like saying you're the best second rate player around. And this is not to disparage the women who will play. I just think this is crap.
