British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS) Tennis
(
1 2 3 4 5 … 10
)
(Preview)
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...

Prize Money
(

(Preview)
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...

Sexual (and other) Abuse in Tennis

There have been various cases that have been posted and discussed, in various threads. But it seems to me that, as such an important issue, which must not be shied away from, we should have a separate dedicated thread. So, to put them as separate posts, the independent inquiry decided that there were...

UTR Tennis Tournaments (in Britain or with British Players)

So, Brighton is hosting a UTR tennis tournament with £1800 for the winner, decent money all the way down, prizes for the divisional winners, host families, etc. etc. It seems to be a men/women mixed event (based purely on UTR ranking), which is interesting. Is this a completely new thing? Or have I jus...

Progress Tour 2024

Seeing as we usually have dedicated threads for the British Tour and UKPL, I thought perhaps we should have a dedicated thread for the top money events from the Progress Tour too rather than putting it in the UTR thread. This week is the £10k event at Cardiff Met, with, what appears to be, a 32 draw for the...

There are TONS of potential people to note here. I'd been keeping a list but it's not complete and so I've given up.... So just a little shout out today to Andy Bettles who seems to be doing a great job in Svitolina's corner, at the Aussie open. Good to see him, as one of our college boys, making a good living...
