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.
