South Carolina

This is our second visit to the tournament (2023/2026) and again we had a wonderful visit:

- Parking easy to find and shuttle service was quick and easy - very little waiting

- Volunteers plentiful, cheerful and helpful. Again, very little entry waiting, helpful finding seats

- Plenty of food options, but VERY expensive at Verde - $73 lunch for two - wrap, salad, cookie, 1 drink

- Appreciate the bottle filling option at the water fountains

- Phone app great - easy

- Weather perfect - glad to know you're on good terms with Mother Nature

- Like the post-match interviewer - does a great job of getting personality out of the contestants

Recommendations:

- In the Big Tent - would love to see better use of all four sides of the video cylinder - often only 1 or 2 screens actually showing matches. Would be very helpful if the screens could be elevated as much as possible for better visibility

- Wishing there were a few more opportunities to "mix" with the players, but not quite sure how to make that happen that would satisfy them. Enjoyed the after-match interviews buy TCLive, but the players have their backs to the crowd . . .

- Wish there was a way to expand the seating on Court 3 - doubles matches were slammed full on Tuesday - not sure how that worked out the rest of the

One silly question:

- Was there ANY plan or system for installing the various colored seats in the stadium - amazing how completely random the color scheme was - spent dead time pondering . . .

Great experience again. Wish there were more shaded seats . . .

It was great! Highly recommend the Club tickets. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

What a tournament! We had a great time.

This was my fourth time attending COCO. I love this tournament!

We attend every year. Noticed several improvements this year. Like the printed tickets and lanyards. The concessions seemed to be better organized and offered improved food selections. Overall, we had a great time at the event. That is until we tried to leave. Once again, traffic from the bus parking lot shuffles onto the main highway going in the wrong direction for those of us trying to leave the island. There is a left turn light of very short duration. Maybe six cars get through each cycle. The line of cars waiting to turn left is very long. Traffic control at this intersection is badly needed. I commented on this last year, but nothing was done about it. Please fix this. Thanks for asking.
