No tick zone

The 2019 Champions Cup tested a new rule, where tick shots were disallowed in the 8th and extra ends. Any rock that touches the centre line in those ends was not allowed to be moved by an opposing rock until after the fifth rock of the end had been played. This rule had previously been used in the defunct Elite 10 Grand Slam event.
