Seems like there is always one of these threads when it rains. Amazes me that people don't check weather reports for tennis matches played outdoors like they would for baseball or football. You'll save yourself some hassle if you just do a quick search at weather.com for the city the tournament is in so you know in advance if weather might come into play - especially if you don't want funds tied up.

Also helps to know the time difference. Google World Clock + City.

I have a pending wager on one of these matches and I stayed up all night waiting for it to finish and when it hit 4:30am I just had to say forget it and get some sleep. Needless to say I couldn't get any sleep wondering whether or not I lost that match.

I hate rain delays
