VENICE BEACH!!! I am pretty sure they did that in Florida by Scott Fitzgerald when I took a few lessons by him. My memory could be off. I was away for the tournament.
Use only all-glass courts, I think the German Open had (for the first time I had ever seen) courts with floors that were also glass and it had an excellent appearance for the videos. Put them all inside of a big building that has air conditioning. In this way neither rain, wind, insects, nor surface condensation will affect play. Put the doors of the courts on the sides of the courts. Do not allow advertising above the tin. The tin can have advertising text that changes, but not while play is taking place. Do not allow Joey Barrington to be a commentator, get someone who provides informative analysis. Between individual games have one or two commentators speak with a real pro about the game that just happened, using clips from it. Use a different famous past pro for every high-level match (last 16, say). Create a video that defines squash vocabulary (nick, boast) and explains squash tactics. Use the video to also explain 4 or 5 example sequences (rallies). Put the video out before the Olympics and have it on the LA Olympics web site. Do not waste the opportunity that this - squash being in the Olympics (for the first time) - represents.
would love to see them set up a platform on a beach, facing the ocean as a backdrop. Couldn't picture a better way to showcase the ability PSA and Squash has to put together events in some very unique and beautiful locations. A huge upside to these glass courts, and certainly something the average viewer does'nt know about the tour.

Venice Beach would be so cool!
Outdoor court with an indoor backup sounds like a smart plan

Movie studios are a great idea. Imagine putting a court in one of the unused sets - like a cowboy or sci-fi movie.
Las Vegas or los Angeles could be great spots...❤
Santa Monica Pier
Loving the new content beyond match play @squashtv
I'm ok with LA but my first choice would have been San Diego, a jewel in the crown. Skål!
Its got to be outdoors. If not its a sin.
