Phil,"I would love to see a study of how long doubles matches are with and without clocks, and I believe that would make a strong case for clocks in doubles."

I find it shocking that a Doubles T can still be played and not be clock mandatory! I don't play doubles very often anyhow and most certainly won't ever play doubles in an unclocked event. I have seen a 7 pt dubs match take over 3 hours with players taking up to 15 min to discuss some of the moves.

Phil,"consistently I hear a huge majority of the players favor clocks...some even saying they will tend to stay away from tournaments that don't use them."

Well you didn't see me in Vegas did you? Didn't see me in Ohio either did you?
