We’re not ready, but the clay-court season waits for no one and there are three ATP 250-level tournaments this week.

One’s in the U.S. (Houston), one in Africa (Marrakech) and the other in eastern Europe (Bucharest).

Montrealer Taha Baadi, who has quietly sported the Moroccan flag for a couple of months now, made his “official” debut representing that country with wild cards into singles and doubles at the tournament in Marrakech.

WTA Tour – Monday, March 31, 2025 final results

(Houston is one hour behind EDT, Marrakech is four hours ahead, and Bucharest is seven hours ahead)
