I saw the format a couple of days ago, but didn't bother to post it. It doesn't tell you much, other then when matches are on. You'd think they could've at least announced which of the top-16 were playing when by now. Would showing us a draw be the worst thing?

I don't think the entries are closed yet.

PTC 1 Draw is on Monday so my guess with only 14 days until Qualifying from Monday the Australian Open Draw will be made as well.....one 2011/2012 Tour Player will not be known until the European Amateur Championship is completed on 17th of June.

It's okay. Most players should be able to get to Australia on short notice.

I just forgot there was 3 matches, so I didn't realise there was one at 1am. Just 4:30 and 10:30. :-) I thought I'd get a lie in until 4:30am.
