(c) Restrictions (i)  A player may not “freeze” her Special Ranking during any  period of suspension for violation of the Rules, TADP, or  TACP. (ii)  A player may “freeze” her Special Ranking Period a maximum  of two (2) times per Special Ranking. Upon a player’s second  and third Return to Competition, she will have the same  number of Tournaments and the same time remaining  in her Special Ranking Period and the same number of  Tournaments remaining in which to use her eligibility as  an Additional Seed as she had when the “freeze” went into  effect. ii.  Tournament Entry and Acceptance A player must submit all requests to use her Special Ranking to enter  WTA Tournaments, Grand Slams, or Women’s ITF World Tennis Tour  events to WTA Operations by the applicable WTA or Grand Slam  entry deadline or by the Monday prior to the applicable ITF entry  deadline. The WTA will not accept requests submitted after entry  deadlines. A player may use her Special Ranking and actual WTA Ranking  interchangeably for singles entry and Doubles Advance Entry, but  she may not change the ranking she uses to enter a Tournament  after that Tournament’s entry deadline; provided, however, that if a  player enters a WTA Tournament or Women’s ITF World Tennis Tour  event with her Special Ranking and she would have been accepted  into that Tournament using her actual WTA Ranking as of the  completion of the first round of Qualifying, then her Special Ranking  entry will not count towards her maximum Tournaments to use her  Special Ranking. If multiple players with the same WTA Ranking enter  the same Tournament, the player using her actual WTA Ranking will  be accepted before the player using her Special Ranking. 158
