Explaining the wisdom of the ages

Article Abstract:

Peter Bodo's interpretation of the WTA Tour's new age eligibility rules is disputed. The new rules limit the number of times players between the ages of 14 and 17 may play in exhibition games and requires that players at least 16 years old may compete in competitions over the Tier III level.

Would no-ad scoring be good for the game?

Article Abstract:

The International Tennis Federation is testing a new scoring system, the no-ad scoring, which eliminates deuce and replaces love-15-30-40-game with 0-1-2-3-game. The new scoring system does not only encourage the server to think harder but also makes scheduling of matches easier.

No

Article Abstract:

The International Tennis Federation is experimenting with no-ad scoring system, which eliminates the deuce in favor of a 0-1-2-3-game scoring format. Some argue that it is bad for the game because it alters the game's most important element and source of drama and excitement.
