Among many other topics discussed, Andrea Gaudenzi, ATP director, addresses the issue of tennis balls: "For the first time, we have centralized the selection process to ensure a uniform ball throughout different moments of the season. Full implementation will take a couple more years because some tournaments have existing commercial contracts. Changing balls in close tournaments creates difficulties for the athletes, we know and want to avoid it. So, of course, we will not produce the balls, but we can work on a specification problem. We will try to provide quality standards to comply with," the Italian stated as reported by Sportface.
