Jeannette and I attended a number of functions at Roland Garros including the French IC cocktail party. We were given a special welcome back having been unable to attend in 2015 and 2016. About a hundred and fifty attended and we met a number of the touring French IC players who came to Auckland in early 2015. We were pleased to see and able to talk to Karl Budge and Martin Colenbrander while watching one of the big games. The security around Roland Garros was highly visible with many police and security people out on the street where bags were inspected and once again as we entered the grounds. At this point we were given wrist bands allowing us to enter Philippe Chatrier and Suzanne Lenglen Courts. We saw a lot of top players in action. Clay is a wonderful surface to watch tennis being played with longer rallies and a greater variety of shots. Roland Garros is currently undergoing a substantial upgrade estimated to cost four hundred million Euros. 2 Membership We are very keen to ensure that we have recommendations from all over NZ for new members. If any of you have a suggestion for a person, whom you consider qualifies as either a Member or an Honorary Member of our club, please send the name of that person to Angela Hart, who will forward it on to the Chairman of the Membership Committee, Lynette Duncan. Remember that you must not approach that person before sending their name on, as there is a process for nominations to go through prior to being invited into the club. Members qualify if they are NZ citizens, have been ranked in the top 10 in NZ, or won a NZ residential title, or have had an ATP or WTA ranking. Honorary members qualify if they are NZ citizens, have competed in an International event with distinction, or have given valuable service to International aspects of tennis in NZ.

Peter also volunteers for Tennis Auckland having been a selector for 7 years and currently being a member of the Judicial Committee a position he has held for the last 8 Years. A new CEO for Tennis NZ Tennis New Zealand has appointed experienced sports administrator Julie Paterson as its new chief executive. At the helm of the Netball Northern Zone and Mystics franchise for the past five years, Paterson was eager for a new challenge presented by Tennis NZ as they try to establish a new strategy of developing the game. “They’re focused on the next stage of their development as a sport nationally and that's a really exciting time to be involved," Paterson said. “I see this as an opportunity to take all of the learnings I've had and apply them to a different sporting environment and that will be a refreshing change for me professionally. Tennis NZ Board chair Celia Patrick said they were delighted to secure someone of Paterson's experience after undertaking an extensive search for a new chief executive. With more than 11 years' experience in sports leadership, Paterson is no stranger to change having featured in the National Bank Cup, the trans-Tasman ANZ Championship and the new domestic ANZ Premiership during her time in netball. Extremely passionate about progressing women's sport, in 2015 Paterson was selected for the US Department of State and espnW Global Sports Mentoring Programme – one of the world's most sought-after female sport leader's professional development opportunities. She went on to co- found Women in Sport Aotearoa, New Zealand's first national advocacy organisation for women and girls in sport launched earlier this year.

    Western & Southern Open Defending Champions Headline Doubles Fields CINCINNATI (Aug. 11, 2020) – Both the women’s and men’s defending champions are among the initial entries to play doubles at the 2020 Western & Southern Open, which will be held Aug. 20-28 at the USTA Billie Jean King Tennis Center in New York. The 2019 WTA doubles winners – Lucie Hradecka and Andreja Klepac – are joined by the ATP Tour champions – Ivan Dodig and Filip Polasek – to headline the early entries. Other notable entries on the women’s side include the teenage pairing of Cincinnati’s 18-year-old Caty McNally and 16-year-old Coco Gauff. Dubbed “McCoco,” the duo won a pair of WTA titles in 2019 – at Washington, D.C. and Luxembourg – and reached the US Open Round of 16. Elise Mertens and Aryna Sabalenka, who finished 2019 atop the WTA Porsche Race to Shenzen as the season’s No. 1 team, are also in the field. Reigning Australian Open singles champion Sofia Kenin, a 21-year- old American, has entered with former Western & Southern Open singles and doubles winner Victoria Azarenka. The top two teams in the ATP Tour doubles race are entered in the men’s draw. The No. 1 team of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah is returning after reaching two straight Western & Southern Open finals. They are joined in the field by the No. 2 team of Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo. The ATP Tour No. 1 ranked singles player, Novak Djokovic, has entered the doubles draw with countryman Filip Krajinovic. An additional five women’s teams and six men’s duos will join the fields through on-site entries, while the tournament will award three wild cards into each draw to complete the 32-team fields.
