NEW YORK -- The ATP board of directors is going to take a closer look at mens professional tennis with no service lets. . The board has approved the elimination of service lets on the Challenger Tour for the first three months of next year. ATP Executive Chairman Brad Drewett says the board believes "a trial at the ATP Challenger level will be a good way to test this initiative in a competitive environment and get feedback from players and the public before deciding if it could be adapted more broadly." Also Wednesday, the board announced a change to the penalties for a time violation that goes into effect next year. The move changes the penalty for a second and all subsequent violations of the 25-second rule by a server to a fault, and a point penalty for the receiver. Currently, the penalty for multiple violations is a point for both the server and receiver. [url=http://www.falconsofficialteamstore.com/autographed-thomas-decoud-jersey-aw... DeCoud Jersey .

She trailed overall World Cup leader Tina Maze by 0.55 seconds after the opening leg but overtook the Slovenian with a near-flawless final run. Velez Zuzulova finished in a combined time of 1 minute, 37.28 seconds. Kathrin Zettel of Austria was 0.10 back. Maze was third, 0.20 behind. The rest of the field finished more than a second behind Velez Zuzulova, who celebrated her victory by lying face-down in the snow in the finish area for about 30 seconds. "A while ago I was almost thinking that its impossible to win one day," said the 28-year-old Velez Zuzulova, who has been racing on the World Cup circuit since 2000. The Slovakian, who married her French coach Romain Velez in the off-season, said attacking was her only tactic for the final run. "After the first run I was really happy," Velez Zuzulova said. "But the second run was really difficult as I knew Kathrin had a good time. I had to attack, it was the only way I could win." Zettel said she was "super happy, to get this result in front of your home crowd is such a great feeling." Mikeala Shiffrin of the United States, who led the slalom standings going into the race, straddled a gate and didnt finish her second run. Brittany Phelan of Mont-Tremblant, Que., was the top Canadian in 16th. Erin Mielzynski of Guelph, Ont., was 18th, Marie-Michele Gagnon of Lac-Etchemin, Que., was 20th and Elli Terwiel of Heffley Creek, B.C., was 23rd. Defending overall champion Lindsey Vonn missed the race while recovering from an intestinal illness, and world slalom champion Marlies Schild of Austria is out for three months after knee surgery. Maze earned her 11th podium finish of the season, went top of the slalom standings and extended her overall lead. But she still coulndt hide her disappointment about losing her commanding first-run lead. "Of course I was disappointed when I came down the second run," said Maze, who had never previously finished a slalom in Semmering.

Maze leads the overall World Cup standings going into 2013 with 1,059 points, 427 clear of Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany, who finished fourth in the night slalom. Vonn is 645 points behind in fifth place. "I am bit emotional," Maze said. "The year is ending, I am skiing so good. Its amazing." According to U.S. womens head coach Alex Hoedlmoser, Vonn is yet to decide if she will return to the circuit for speed racing from Jan. 10-13 at one of her favourite venues, St. Anton, Austria. "Lindsey is working hard on her physical fitness and she is doing ski training," Hoedlmoser told The Associated Press. "However, we are not putting her under any pressure and we have not set a date. The decision is completely up to Lindsey and the people shes working with now. It would be useless to return when shes not back at full strength." Shiffrin topped the slalom standings following her maiden victory last week in Are, Sweden. She was 0.87 back in fourth after the opening run before skiing out in her second. She lost the line early in her run before the next gate tucked her up. She failed to recover and straddled a gate shortly afterward. The 17-year-old American said it was "a bummer" but was quick to take the positives. "This is only my second year racing World Cups and every experience is new. I am trying to learn as fast as I can," she said. "Wearing the red bib (as leader of the slalom standings) was my dream ever since I was little but I never put a date on it. I didnt really think about it at the start, it was just another bib at just another race." The womens World Cup continues with two more slaloms -- in Munich on Jan. 1 and a night race three days later in Zagreb, Croatia. ' ' '
