Why is the WTA doubles final not broadcast like the ATP? WTA finals most likely will have their top teams remaining while the ATP top team has never won this event.

Why is the WTA doubles final not broadcast like the ATP? WTA finals most likely will have their top teams remaining while the ATP top team has never won this event.

Doubles is frankly pretty lucky to have anybody be broadcast, period. ATP will always trump WTA unless one of the big *singles* names moonlighting in doubles is up without any name recognition on the ATP side to compete against it.

[RalfDweflywex]

This seems very surprising, particularly 1) in an Olympic year when 2) these two have been playing doubles together for some time.

I may be recalling this incorrectly, but I thought that pairing wasn't going so well in general and that they hadn't really teamed of late. Unless I'm mistaken they didn't take a set the last two times they teamed in davis cup. One of them was a horrible 6-1 6-2 6-0 loss (not sure about the exact order, but they took only 3 games). I got the impression somehow that the doubles relationship was somewhat frosty.

[peemovvie]

It's odd, funny and a little bit sad looking at the qualy draw. You realize how far a lot of ladies who we thought had a great deal of talent have fallen. Some due to injury, of course, but some are just plain head scratchers.

[peemovvie]

When do they do the draws?

Womens today, mens tomorrow, Martini.
