This article was recommended for deletion because of concerns that the subject of the article did not meet the notability criteria for Tennis. I have now updated the article to reflect that he does. It appears from the news articles that I have now cited and linked in the article Frank Okey that Mr. Okey played in the 'Main Draw' of the US National Tennis Championship at Forrest Hills in 1952, which is the US Open. I confirmed that this is true today through personal communication with Mr. Okey. He did indeed play in the main draw. Thus, the article now reflects that Mr. Okey passes the criteria for notability for tennis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis. This is the first article that I've posted, so I'll look forward to more feedback. Please let me know if I've not posted this feedback in the correct place.
