SEASON FORMAT

Women’s and men’s competitions are run separately.Qualifying for playoffs
After the group stage, the administrator creates and publishes a Top 8, 16 or 32 bracket.
Playoffs
Matches are single elimination. The winner advances, and the final winner becomes the Season 01 champion.
MATCH SCORE
SETS & TIE-BREAKS
Report the score exactly as the match was played.Full set
A valid set score is 6:0–6:4, 7:5 or 7:6. A regular tie-break at 6:6 is included in the full-set score as 7:6.
Group match
Two full sets are played. At one set each, a match tie-break replaces the third set: first to at least 10 points with a margin of two.
Match tie-break in standings
The winner of the match tie-break receives one won set. Its points are not games and never count toward game difference.
Playoff match
The match continues until one player wins two full sets. At 1:1, a full third set is played rather than a match tie-break.
