Is it possible to perhaps do a Queens one? That will be cool as there is only 1 grass event in the whole calendar.

Nah, I think it should only be the masters.

Are you sure? A Queens one will be well received in my opinion. |

It just doesn't fit the same, there's enough tournaments already anyway.

I think there's enough spread throughout the year with the Grand Slams and Masters. If we were to consider any others they would be 500 tournaments but running rtr that often isn't going to happen.

I see what you mean, I suggested it because it has a pretty healthy strong line up and besides it will give us more grass events to predict for. Balancing the schedule surface wise a bit more. |

the grass season is very short and so there are less tournaments. I know what you mean about Queen's popularity but we have the French just before and Wimbledon just after. That's 4 weeks of running rtr. The organisers cannot and should not be expected to run another rtr inbetween the 2 grand slams. |
