The Australian Open will no longer play advantage final sets. As from AO 2019 the final set will be decided after six-games-all with the longer of the tiebreak formats – first to 10-points.
The decision comes following the most extensive consultation in the tournament’s history.
“We asked the players – both past and present, commentators, agents and TV analysts whether they wanted to play an advantage final set or not, and went from there,” Australian Open Tournament Director Craig Tiley said.
While many sports have wrapped up for the year, plenty of football and basketball action is just getting underway.
