"I favor playing a full third set in league tennis matches. Greg Blatnik 11284428"
"My usta #10697973"
"Reinstate the third set."
"These matches are supposed to be fun, not something to get through as quickly as possible."
"Please bring back the 3rd set. Nobody who is playing wants the tie break! We may STOP playing league if it is not brought back!"
"please reconsider"
"At the very least, include a third set for the 4.5 levels and above. It seems players at these levels are more interested in tennis than time schedules. Oh, and next time try to give us some real reasons and not those bogus patronizing ones. Thanks"
"Bring back the full third set! USTA # 1180272496"
"please reinstate the third set."
"In favor or overturning the tie-break rule."
"Please reinstate the 3rd set. "
"My USTA number is 11199546"
"why was it changed in the first place?"
"Would prefer to play the full third set!! Whether or not we want to spend the time playing should be up to us!"
"USTA #10826000"
"The 10 point tie break does not motivate me to play more at all. The thrill of the third set is lost. "
"I want to reinstate the third set for all regular season league matches "
"The idea of leagues is to play real matches...This requires a real third set"
"The reason I play USTA is so I can get as close to a professional-like experience at my level. By removing natural parts of the game (like a real third set)it becomes hard to equate the "matches" that I play with the matches they play on the circuit. Why "
" "
"Please reconsider."
"I am strongly in favor of a full third set, rather than a tie breaker."
"There is no reason to eliminate the third set in a league match or even in in a playoff match. There is no time pressure, scheduling pressure and it eliminates important deciding factors that can occur in a full third set--conditioning, give and take in"
"member number: 1180303132"
"The third set is to valuable to replace with a tie breaker"
