"Gentlemen's agreements" are not always etched in stone (which are why they are called "gentlemen's agreements" as they are NOT requirements).That's what I remember it being when I was younger (and as noted elsewhere, may not be as true as it once was now and this year certainly can't be honored this year with the religious holidays after that plus the Pope's visit). It certainly was changed. And yes, those changes were made because the players had complained about playing the semis and finals back-to-back. This will be the first time since 2007 that the US Open will actually conclude on Sunday assuming no real bad weather (2008-'12 ended on Monday due to weather and the last two years were intentional Monday endings). |
