2009 Australian Championships

REGULATIONS

In rain normally play will be suspended if there is water pooling on the surface
The venue manager shall instruct the players to cease play immediately if there is lightning in the area and the players must comply. Players and officials should shelter in a safe area.
Play will not be suspended due only to wind.
It is not considered appropriate to use only a specific temperature to consider deferring play, however if, a combination of high temperature and high humidity create a safety issue and a player feels they are affected to such a degree they are unable to continue playing the venue manager should suspend play and consult with the tournament manager.
The tournament manager will endeavour to reschedule the continuance at a later time but given the tight schedule this may not be possible and the player who ceased play would be treated as conceding the game.
