1 For the first rubber won 5 points is awarded, the second absorbed rubber grants 10 points that gives a total of 15 available points.
2 If a player goes on to win a live rubber in later rounds, these 10 points are discounted. Only one loss can be converted to points.
3 Team bonus awarded to a singles player who wins 7 live matches in a calendar year and his team wins the competition.

Famous quotes containing the words point and/or distribution:
“What is line? It is life. A line must live at each point along its course in such a way that the artist’s presence makes itself felt above that of the model.... With the writer, line takes precedence over form and content. It runs through the words he assembles. It strikes a continuous note unperceived by ear or eye. It is, in a way, the soul’s style, and if the line ceases to have a life of its own, if it only describes an arabesque, the soul is missing and the writing dies.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
“The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
