“For the first time since the Stadium Court was constructed at The Racquet Club in the mid-1970s, the seating will be noticeably upgraded. Tournament director Erin Mazurek said the Memphis Open officials contracted with Seating Solutions, a company out of Landrum, South Carolina, to install upgraded seating. Most of the arena’s approximately 2,600 seats will be flip-downs with chair backs, a more comfortable option. VIP seating on the Stadium Court’s south side will be padded folding chairs. “It’s a unique building that presents limitations because of walls and beams and (its recreational use) the other 50 weeks of the year,” Mazurek said. “So everyone kind of put the puzzle pieces (of a seating configuration) in there, piece-mealing it using stage decking and folding chairs versus a real stadium build. This year, (tournament owner) GF Sports decided it was time to upgrade the professional look and feel of the structure. The result of that is (the structure) is not only more appealing visually, the seats are more comfortable and more appropriately spaced. And they are safer. The stairwells, the handrails, everything is safer than it was before and it’s newer material.” Seating at the Stadium Court is not permanent. When the tournament ends, the stands and seating are removed to return the building to its normal use.” -USA TODAY NETWORK -TN, The Commercial Appeal on Feb 11, 2017
