Answer
- A In doubles a men's team has one break in total, a women's team two.
- B A player who takes an additional break and is not ready in time receives back-to-back time violations; men then lose their Authorised Break if not yet taken, women do not.
- D Men may only take the break at a set break; women may also take the toilet break before their own service game.
Explanation
Section II E 5: Both have one break in singles. In doubles men's teams have one, women's teams two. Men only take it at a set break; women may take the toilet break before their own service game too. Men may only leave the court to change wet shorts or underwear; shirts, socks and shoes are changed on court.
