I often see people refer to "The LTA" as an organisation and want to know actually who it is at the LTA responsible for certain decisions. When board members post things like "The LTA scrapped most of the futures events" or "The LTA scrapped the bonus scheme" etc it must be a decision from either the Chie...

For my own amusement, I thought I would try and keep track of the top tennis nations over the course of the year and see where GB stacked up. Being honest, my main interest is the mens game, so I planned to track the week by week average rankings of the top 10 players in each of the key countries and see if GB ma...

Thought I'd start a new thread for the Pro League for 2022. Their website has been updated with a calendar. Although I'd imagine there is a chance it will change during the year. Currently 7 qualifying weeks and a finals week. Down from 9 and the finals in 2021. 2020 had 5 and the classic week. Week 1 16-...

I notice with horror that the prize money for the men's ATP 250's has tanked! I appreciate that the plandemic will have played a part in this, sponsors pulling out, loss of income from spectators etc. There is bound to be somebody who knows more about this than me who might be able to advise if this is a te...

It seems that we've had a couple of specific threads for certain players but that a general thread might also be a good idea, so it's bit more all-encompassing.

I've searched and I think we are missing a topic for this. It's really quite an important part of the British Tennis landscape and should be followed on this forum. Clearly it's never going to be as big as College Tennis in the states, but we do have quite a few aspiring professionals in the BUCS system. M...

On the grounds that occasionally someone does something quite extraordinary that seems to merit attention but doesn't fit into any other thread, would the mods be all right with this as a thread? If so, may I nominate Gilles Simon as a worthy opener? A few days ago, he was on crutches and the assumption...

Looking at the calendar on the ATP website for next year there are a few more 96 draw 2 week masters events (Madrid, Rome & Shanghai) to add to Miami and Indian Wells. I thought the idea was that an ATP 250 was going to take place in the 2nd week of these? If so, I cannot see any mentioned
