    (Nov 2005) The WTA has posted their 2006 schedule (.pdf version), which is reproduced above with links to most tourney websites. Notable differences from 2005:
    1) No tourneys are scheduled for the week of April 24th, which follows the 1st round (QFs) of the Fed Cup. If this gap is not filled, players who are not participating in the Fed Cup (and their fans) will have 2 weeks to kill before another WTA tourney, and everyone will have 1 week empty.
    2) The French Open main draw will begin on Sunday, rather than Monday, to raise TV revenues, making Roland Garros a 15-day tourney. The US Open is considering making the same change.
    3) Roland Garros and Wimbledon are both 6 days later than in 2005; the US Open 1 day earlier, clustering these three slams a week closer together. It would be nice if they could dig up a couple more grass court tourneys and have 3 weeks between Roland Garros & Wimbledon, but this, of course, would be very difficult.
    4) The Hyderabad, India, tourney has been moved to Bangalore, and a new event has been added in Tel Aviv, Israel.
    5) The Advanta tourney in Philadelphia has disappeared. This is unfortunate; it leaves the Tour with only 2 small tourneys the week before the WTA Championships.
    6) Standard purses have been raised: Tier I is up $40,000, Tier II is $15,000 higher, Tier III & IV are up $5,000. Tier V has been eliminated.
