Tennis Australia's new CEO Andrew Abdo has sparked a major debate in world tennis by questioning one of the most hallowed traditions of the Grand Slam, the five-set format for men. Speaking at the SportNXT conference in Melbourne, he suggested the sport should explore shorter matches and changes to the scoring system to meet changing fan habits.
