Fallout from a seedy affair

Article Abstract:

The US Tennis Assn. (USTA) came under heavy criticism for the way it handled the seedings and the men's draw for the 1996 US Open. USTA officials upgraded the ranking Andre Agassi reportedly to increase his chances of meeting Pete Sampras. They also placed the top seeds into the men's draw after the 112 unseeded players.
