Competition format
The 2020 World TeamTennis season includes nine teams. Each team plays a 14-match regular-season schedule.
The matches consist of five sets, with one set each of men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles. The first team to reach five games wins each set. A nine-point tiebreaker is played if a set reaches four games all. One point is awarded for each game won and scoring is cumulative. If necessary, Extended Play and a Supertiebreaker are played to determine the winner of the match.[5]
The top four teams in the regular season (12–30 July) will qualify for the World TeamTennis playoffs. The winner of the WTT Finals will be awarded the King Trophy.
