Maybe the USTA can do something productive and get these horseman grief counselors if needed.

While I think it's a moot point, whatever the USTA does is far too little and very far too late. However, whatever they do, they have little to no authority AND they suffer from being grossly under qualified and inept. This last fiasco with the sanctions and fines was a joke. It was a "Hail Mary" so that they don't get left behind and shut out of whatever this industry and sport ends up doing. Nobody said a word about an organization "controlled" by Russell Williams, and another "related" organization, investigating and handing out fines and sanctions to a major competitor of Hanover. Inherent and blatant conflict of interest.
