MELBOURNE, Australia – Tough for Auckland, which has had two weeks of crappy weather as they hold their events for the first time in several years.

On the men’s side, in particular, some of the players will think twice before going back – given an Adelaide alternative just about guarantees perfect conditions.

Speaking of Adelaide, there have been more upsets than on the women’s side but still some compelling quarter final matches in store.

Adelaide is 15 1/2 hours ahead of Eastern time and Auckland is 18 hours ahead.
