40 minutes scheduled for each match
Because for each session, the organization has planned 40 minutes per match. A fairly standard timing on the international circuit, but which, modeled on the Games, where the public, the celebrations, the pressure, and the broadcasting issues are added (only the matches on court 1 for standing players, and 2 for wheelchairs are filmed), suddenly becomes tighter. A match in three sets, and it’s all the other matches that are delayed.
