Calgary hosted the Davis Cup recently at the Corral. I covered it in 2008 and it was very well done. It was a great weekend event and I have no doubt we could do a challenger. There's plenty of room for press and a few thousand people can attend. I didn't seen it through the eyes of the audience, but Tennis Canada treated me very well. The Corral has the space on the east and west sides, while closer stands were set-up on the north and south ends so spectators could sit closer.
