the Tournament with the opportunity to cure a violation prior to issuing a determination. 

iii. Possible Penalties 

Violations of the Tournament Standards of Performance shall subject a Tournament to one (1) or more of the following: (a) a warning; (b) a fine; (c) being placed on “Probationary” status; (d) loss or change in membership status; (e) forfeiture of all sums, if any, paid to the WTA; and/or (f) any other reasonable penalties. In addition to the foregoing, when a Tournament or Tournament partner uses a Player Likeness in violation of Section VII.B.7.a, then the affected Player may request that such Tournament shall be precluded from using her likeness in any and all advertising the following year of the Tournament provided that such request is made at least six (6) months prior to the start of such Tournament. 

Violations of the Tournament Standards of Performance shall be classified by the WTA by Tournament category and by Violation Level.
