Qualifying to Main draw)

Violation of this Section shall result in a fine up to $1,000 in addition to any
other fines provided in the Code.
In circumstances that are flagrant and particularly injurious to the success of
the tournament, or are singularly egregious, a single violation of this Section
shall also constitute the Major Offence of “Aggravated Behaviour”.
F. REMISSION OF FINES
Under extraordinary circumstances a player has the right to appeal a
Late Withdrawal or Non-Appearance fine to the ITF provided such
appeal is filed within ten (10) days of the last day of the tournament.
Such extraordinary circumstances must be substantiated by
documentation.

Sweatshirts, gym shorts, dress shirts, T-shirts or any other inappropriate attire

tennis attire. Shoes shall not cause damage to the court other than what
is expected during the normal course of a match or practice. Damage to
a court may be considered as physical or visible, which may include a
shoe that leaves mark beyond what is considered acceptable. The ITF
9
Supervisor has the authority to determine that a shoe does not meet
these criteria and may order the player to change.
i. Grass Court Shoes
At grass court tournaments no grass court shoes other than those with
rubber soles, without heels, ribs, studs or coverings, shall be worn by
players.
Shoes with pimples or studs around the outside of the toes shall not be

The ITF Supervisor has the authority to determine that a tennis shoe’s
sole does not conform to such customs and standards and can prohibit
its use at grass court tournaments.
ii. Clay Court Shoes
Players are required to wear tennis shoes generally accepted for play
on clay courts or granular surfaces. The ITF Supervisor has the
authority to determine that a tennis shoe’s sole does not conform to
such customs and standards and can prohibit its use at clay court
tournaments.
Grass court shoes shall not be worn during a match on clay courts.
