Match Format:
- Challenges are best 2 out of 3 sets, regular Ad-scoring, 12 point tie-breakers. If the match is played using other formats, the Ladder Chair will not accept the challenge score.
- The Ladder Chair recommends that parties agree on a time frame that will facilitate a potential three set match.
- Once the match time is scheduled, the USTA 15 minute default rule is in effect.
- If a match has to be suspended due to court or weather conditions, players will note the score and resume from that score at the earliest opportunity.
Reporting Scores:
- The winner must report the score within 24 hours of the completion of the match via email to the ladder chair, Scott Guiltner, ladder@sdtf.org.
- Email is the preferred method, however a phone message may be left at 760-207-7247 if emailing is not an option.
Enforcement & Grievances:
- The Ladder Chair is responsible for enforcing the challenge ladder rules as interpreted by the Rules Chair/committee.
- Questions and grievances regarding the Grand Prix Ladder rules should first be addressed to the Ladder Chair.
- In the event that a satisfactory resolution is not reached with the Ladder Chair, matters of rules disputes should be brought before the Rules Chair/committee for a decision. The Rules Chair can be reached via email at rules@sdtf.org.
- The Ladder Chair and Rules Chair will confer on grievances and will agree to a final decision collectively. Their decision is final.
