In honor of his continuous commitment to the sport, the International Tennis Federation recently presented him the Philippe Chatrier Award. Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde on Cover very now and then a special occasion arises in a person’s life, leading him or her to pause momentarily, reflect on past achievements and reap the rewards of years of hard Ework. For 17-time Grand Slam champion Mark Woodforde, one half of “The Woodies,” arguably the greatest doubles partnership of all time, three occasions stand out in particular: the days in which he was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame, the Sport Australia Hall of Fame and the Australian Tennis Hall of Fame. But his most recent recognition – the Philippe Chatrier Award, renowned as the International Tennis Federation’s highest honor – is held in the same regard as his Hall of Fame inductions. “When I was notified about the honor, it blew me off my feet,” says Woodforde. “To be recognized for my results on the tennis court, as well as my services to the game, led me to stop and think, ‘You’re kidding me, right?’” The 48-year-old Woodforde, along with his longstanding doubles partner, Todd Woodbridge, received the award on Tuesday, June 3 at the ITF World Champions Dinner, held at Paris’s Pavillon d’Armenonville, in the midst of the 2014 French Open. Woodbridge and Woodforde 1996 Japan Open “The Woodies” became the first doubles team in history to be acknowledged as Philippe Chatrier Award recipients. They also joined Rod Laver, Margaret Court and Neale Fraser as the only other Australians honored with the award, named after the former president of the International Tennis Federation and presented every year since 1996. “I have been to a number of World Champions Dinners in the past and watched as the Philippe Chatrier Award was handed out to some of tennis’s greatest players,” Woodforde continues.

Where sponsorship deals have not been reported, the Sponsorship Today team actively seeks data through web searches, annual financial reports and contacting sponsors, agencies and rights holders. Most sponsorship deals are not reported and, of those that are, the majority do not provide accurate fee or duration data. IMR estimates unreported fee values through comparisons with similar deals, contacts with industry insiders and through its long experience of creating sponsorship analysis reports. There is no guarantee of accuracy of estimates. The sponsorship industry is also known to overstate sponsorship fee values. Such reports are frequently based on the maximum potential value of a deal and might include the total should all incentive clauses (such as sporting success) be met and no morality clauses invoked.
