At the time of this writing (Tuesday at 10:30 pm Central time) the brackets for the pro divisions have not been released. Check the R2 link for updates. Thirty-six players are signed up to play in the pro singles division. Twenty-two players are signed up to be in the pro doubles division. In prior years, the draws were released on Monday to allow for speculation and prognostication by the viewers prior to the event.
Pro Racquetball Stats has an excellent tool called the Tale of the Tape. This tool lets you compare two opponents’ history, to see if they have matched up, and how often, and what their records are against each other. You can use this once the draw is released to have a better understanding of what to expect from a given match.
Matches will be broadcast on Facebook Live and on YouTube Live. The playlist will be embedded below once broadcasting starts. Currently it has a placeholder video from a time when the IRT was featured on the ESPN Top 10 Plays of the Week.
Matches will also be streamed on the IRT Club. Access to these matches (and much more) is available for $15 per month.
