Tiebreakers are also reduced in length – first-to-five-points with a sudden death PowerPoint kicking in at 4 points all.

Doubles –Doubles or consolation singles match are played on a best-of-two-sets basis. Sets are first to four games & tiebreak rules are as per main draw singles. If scores are level at the end of the second set, a first-to-ten-points match tiebreaker will be played.

No advantage/no lets/quick changeovers -Player must be ready within 60 seconds of the change of ends & 90 seconds between sets. Players cannot sit down at the change of ends but may do so quickly between sets.
