Doesnt seem to have been any UKPL website updates since October - anyone know if this has any life still or if it is now an officially ex event? It had its place but I guess time and tennis has moved on?
Oh, the website's back up. The website was gone with the domain registration having expired last I looked. That they've bothered to re-new the domain and put the site back up perhaps suggests they're still working on something for this year?

oh, ok - I had missed that! I hadnt checked it since around Xmas so hadnt spotted it had gone down, it always seemed to be "up" to me, just not updated since the reports on the October 23 winners.
Seems like they're hoping to revive this with the LTA competition calendar showing events pencilled in for weeks 17 and 20 (either side of the Nottingham ITFs) at venues TBC.
Great news. Really think this offered good value for players in the past. Being able to play a guaranteed week of competitive tennis and also earn money towards trips on the pro circuit is so valuable.
I always think the 2020 edition where I think the money was higher than in subsequent years was really the kick start of Billy Harris up the rankings. Got him playing regularly but also banked the money for his trips later that year and into 2021.
