Gotta say that rule on time being reduced from 25 to 15 seconds if the previous point included fewer than 3 shots is just gonna be confusing to the players. I like the idea of starting the match right after the coin toss though. The few minutes of warm-up after coin toss always seemed like a bit of a let down. Wonder how they’ll deal with the balls then, as I understand the warm-up is also for the players to get a feel for the balls and work them in a little. Will they use the same balls from the practice court?
