The ATP has put new rules in place for the 2022 season regarding bathroom breaks. Are they good? Bad? Hilarious? Probably yes to all three. Here are the new rules:
- Players can take a maximum of three minutes once they have entered the toilet
- Players will receive two minutes for a change of attire in addition to the three-minute toilet break
Note: Change of attire may only be done in conjunction with a toilet break (unless authorised by the Chair Umpire)
- A player may only take one toilet break per match
- Toilet breaks can only be taken during a set break
- Time violations will apply if a player is not ready within the allowed time
