Schedule looks similar to last year, but ESPN2 has reduced coverage by 2 hours on the 2nd Tuesday because of a soccer game and NBC has reduced coverage by 30 minutes on Day 1.  Tennis Channel picks up when NBC and ESPN2 aren't on air.  For the 3rd straight year there is overlapping coverage between NBC and ESPN2 on women's semifinal day.
