NEW YORK: The United States Tennis Association (USTA) announced on Wednesday that it will be implementing the "in-game innovations" (read shot clock terms and conditions) this summer which were agreed upon by the ATP and WTA, the men’s and the women’s tour of tennis respectively.

The three organizations have consulted and collaborated with each other on these rule changes, which have been created to increase the speed of the game and ensuring more uniform enforcement standards.
