I know that the President was asked at least three different times if he would come to the Championships. He did not make any commitment, but he didn't absolutely decline either. Given the demands on his schedule, I would not have expected anything different this far in advance (e.g. this event was originally scheduled to take place on November 10, but at the last minute it was rescheduled when the President's plans changed so that he could go to Texas for the memorial service at Fort Hood).
