We see other sports try different formats, darts they play 501's in sets and in legs ... in snooker we see different best of sets, we also seen Power Snooker. In Golf we see matchplay and strokeplay ... so what can be changed in tennis for something different?

1. Only have one serve
2. play best of 5 tie-breaks and not actual games
3. fill up their water bottles with wine instead
4. get rid of the let
5. have a men v women tournament

Allow players to choose one game per set to be played in the doubles lines.

7) a game of hide and seak following every MTO. Whenever a player takes an MTO, the other player has to go hide somewhere in the arena. When the MTO is over the MTO receiver has to go look for the other player, if he/she doesn't find him/her within 3 minutes, the MTO receiver loses the match. Hopefully this will reduce the MTO:s in tennis. If MTO receiver finds player, match goes on as usual.

Laugh  this is so brilliant idea ,only obstacle is mug indoor tournaments but still the mto card would be likely played in big arenas and,player prepared for that would send his look-likes  in various places .

i can even see JJ in 3 years spotting some doofy as a tonic one screaming HOOWWW MANYYYYYYYYYYYYY TIIMEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tag team. if yr losing you can have someone else step in and have a lash while you sit down or go hide caramba style
and
one serve only, but let every player have a second serve once at their discretion during each service game. And if gets to deuce and they have used their second serve opp already they get an extra ( one more) second serve opportunity. this one im serious about too
