Fines double with each subsequent offense in a Tournament category. 

iii. If a player who is still competing in another WTA Tournament or a Grand Slam on the day of the Qualifying Sign-In deadline of the following week’s WTA Tournament receives a Late Withdrawal fine for withdrawing from that Tournament, then that Late Withdrawal fine is not subject to any doubling as long as her participation in the WTA Tournament or the Grand Slam ends on the day of the Qualifying Sign-In (e.g., wins, loses, withdraws, or retires) after the Qualifying Sign-In deadline and the player submits her withdrawal within ninety (90) minutes after the end of her participation in the WTA Tournament or the Grand Slam (i.e., the end of her match).
