WITHDRAWAL, WALKOVER AND RETIREMENT PROCEDURE FOR CHAMPIONSHIP MAJOR ZONES
Over the last 12 months there has been a significant increase in withdrawals, walkovers, and retirements. Players registered for an event who withdraw from that event after Wednesday (three days prior to the start of the event) at 12:00 PM (noon), or who provide a walkover to their opponent, or who retire from a match, will be assessed two points in the suspension point system. If a player reaches 10 points within a 12-month period, the player will be eligible for suspension and will have the right to an appeal process. During this appeal process, which only happens if a player reaches 10 points, the player will be given the opportunity to explain and/or provide any additional information/evidence. No information/evidence will be considered or accepted prior to the player reaching 10 points. If what is provided is deemed to have merit and the withdrawal, walkover, or retirement is determined to be justified, the committee will immediately remove the points for that particular incident and the suspension will be nullified. Please know that the objective of this procedure is not to penalize players, but to track withdrawals, walkovers, and retirements. There is a maximum of two points that can be assessed to a player during a particular tournament, even in the case when the player retires from a match in progress, then awards a walkover to an opponent in the next match.

Excessive Overrule Guideline: The USTA Texas Officials Committee along with the Competitive Department has established a guideline in reference to excessive overrules as clarified in the Friend at Court. This guideline states "Once a player has been overruled for a second time in a match, they will be cautioned that after another overrule, they will be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct under the point penalty system."

Inappropriate umpire/spectator communication, whether it be about a ruling or any other facet of a tennis event is prohibited while a match is in progress. Being a parent, coach, etc. does not endow special privileges. With the only exception of the right to remove their own child from competition at any time, a parent or coach is merely a spectator.
