is the ticket still available???for sunday show???
Henry,
GO to the website and check out the latest update session – program tentative. Schedule is all there…hope it helps..
With all the fuss about this Showdown of Champions nowhere that I have tried tells you the game schedule and most important the bloody time when the games start!!! @#*&!!So much for promoting Tennis in this country!
Attended the singles matches on 20 December 2009. IT WAS FULL OF SHIT!!!!!
1)I had to run around to find out the time of the matches. No where is it mentioned – not on the tickets, not on the website, called the tickethotline number and no one answers the phone, nothing mentioned in the newspaper either!Finally I had to drive to the stadium on Saturday and asked the moron of a girl at the ticket booth and she told me 7.30pm
2) Was at the stadium on Sunday by 6.45pm
3) At the West entrance we were told no drinks or food to be brought inside
the Stadium and we were not allowed to leave the stadium for
refreshments either.The blessed match didnt start till 8.35pm and went
on till past midnight!Can you imagine how hungry and thirsty one can
get?
4) The external of the stadiums grossly lacked basic maintenance. Its a
big shame to Malaysia and especially the state of Selangor
5) To the bloddy organisers – get your act together in a more professional
manner and consideration!!
it’s for the sunday show on 20 dec.
