    Interesting. Seems to be short sharp exchanges which is great but I think the variation is not there for a nice enthralling game. Useful to do with juniors I suppose to get their reactions faster.

    Kindest regards,

    If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?

    I can see lots of broken rackets particularly with amateur social players playing this format.... :crying:

    Would be great for racket manufacturers though..... :D

    Other than that, I'm neither for nor against it... its just another format of playing the game....

    I don't like it. The crowd there doesn't seem to enjoy it much either.

    looks ridicolous (much too many people on low space) and is boring to watch..

    That's not true.
    It's a very good game for ambitious doubles players.
