Tennis 2009 Calendar
Does the ATP and WTA suffering from the economic meltdown?
I read the calendar 2009 by two LPGA events, and a total price 60 million shrink to 55 million in 2009. Tennis suffer the same? made the calendar? profit is increased or decreased? Tournament eliminated due to poor patronage? anna, what happen to your contributor badge? JAVVA – no information on the ATP? It seems that tennis is so strong .. good for all Tennis fans!
Not Eric WTA or ATP or suffer, in fact, WTA offers prize money record of $ 77 million for 2009, which is actually a leap of 10 million worth of $ 67,000,000 prize money offered in 2008. They also give the same reward for the most common events such as Indian Wells Miami, Madrid, Dubai, etc. The events are reduced, but 20 first-class events with the best players of that era, 6 less than the 26 events of Level 1 and 2 they had in 2008. But the new schedule gives more breaks for top players of the season to reduce the number of events mandatory, 13-10 tournaments best players, 23% discount. To make matters worse there is an increase of 30% in low season, which will have a week off season 9, this time, instead of seven weeks of the season. So undoubtedly benefit players. WTA is also investing $ 710 million in the facilities the new stadium, I see the sign of a financial crisis all this, if its obvious non-WTA suffer from economic meltdown. See the 2 links below that contain a wealth of information on this question and also contain information on WTA is making changes for 2009, and so particularly http://www.womenstennisblog.com/2008/09/06/sony-ericsson-wta- turn-listings-landmark-2009-roadmap-calendar-greatest-Reforms first link in History / http://www.sonyericssonwtatour.com/3/newsroom/stories/?ContentID=1483 ATP is also offering more prize money in 2009, the link below indicates that the record prize money for 2009-10, which is correct. ATP is taking a 36 percent increase in prize money for next year and a a bonus pool of $ 8 million. In addition, nearly a billion dollars of investment in tournaments, new stadiums and better services. No sign of a financial crisis in ATP and in very good health. Sorry i miss http://www.tenniswire.org/archives/2008/aug/pr_1313.html not read your question I first thought you were talking WTA only because he gave an example of the LPGA.
