I suggest you check the USTA's weekly fines and suspensions bulletin. It lists everyone, big and small. I guarantee that Rucker will be in there. Just remember that it is only published once a week (generally Friday), so it might not have a suspension listed immediately after the ruling.

I agree with the original post. Too often, the offiicial harness media and tracks ignore their own problems and dont even get a mention. Yes, Paul, the fines are listed on the site after clicking a few links, but this is BIG NEWS. If they can put a death notice for "Jane Doe" who was the great aunt of a two bit driver from Rat Trap Downs on the home page, they should report Rucker's suspension prominently. Same thing with Daley. The day he was tossed, I turned on the M1 feed and Sam didnt mention a thing as to why all the Daley scratches. It doesnt look good.

A thing you can do if you dont think the USTA is giving it enough publicty is email Stan Bergstein at HTA to make sure he knows. He always lists things like this in his weekly news letter.

It may be like looking for a pornography book at the public library.  It may be there, but could be difficult to find.
