Another year, another Miami Open draw farce as WTA messes up draw time on their website with tennis fans waiting

Last year saw the fiasco with the TennisOne App in which the stream showed a grainy picture which was unreadable and unusable, but this year at the Miami Open, it is the draw time which has been released for the WTA Draw which is set to be released on Sunday.
Originally the WTA released a draw time of 1pm EST which corresponded with around 6pm CET and with fans eagerly awaiting the draw, it was nowhere to be seen.

James Blake who is tournament director for the Miami Open replied to a tweet asking about draw times and said that it was today after 4pm which is two and a half hours after the fact when it comes to the initial draw time. This annoyed tennis fans no end on social media.
"The WTA posted the wrong draw time on their website what an incompetent organization," one fan wrote. "Explain yourself," another fan wrote.
This also comes the day after Maria Sakkari who defeated Coco Gauff saw her social media post of winning not put on social media for hours after the match which saw many question the social media strategy and the WTA in general for their releasing of info. Also the draw for Miami Qualifying was done but not released on their website for some time after meaning it has not been the best of periods.
Explain yourself @WTA
Wta draw is today after 4. Atp draw is tomorrow
So last year, we had a draw stream, but it was too blurry to see a thing. This year, the WTA was off by 3 hours (as has been pointed out by some, probably confused time zones) I'm glad this is such a good event, because it has NOT gotten off to good starts.
Explain yourself @WTA
I cant, WTA website was wrong with draw hours...... Draw is at 4pm local time so in 2.5hours.... 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Wta draw is today after 4. Atp draw is tomorrow

- On the subject of potential Losers in Tennis... Why is the tennis media avoiding the news that Giorgi and Family robbed their landlord in Florence? Apparently they did some Midnight Marketing and stole antique and collectible items belonging to the landlord's family (including large furniture and miscellaneous Family History items). The old guy and his mother just want their 'history' back, even though they are losing thousands of Euro's in 6 months of unpaid rent. This man makes it clear the father is the main player behind this sudden disappearance (and the tax dodging in Italy).
mandoist20-05-2024 - Seems like Emma is taking the Giorgi and Bouchard route -- using occasional Tennis as a media hit for their alternate ambitions (zooming sponsors, photo shoots, magazine covers, TV commercials, anti-Social Media postings, hiring photog's to make "informal" shots of her on vacation, etc., etc.) Hey, WTA! Hey, Sponsors! You're being played to the tune of millions of misspent Euros and Pounds!!mandoist20-05-2024
- That explains a lot about her "priorities" (which are not necessarily tennis). Makes sense.mandoist20-05-2024
