  • 2019 USTA Pro Circuit Program
    A T S U y b s o t o h P Welcome to the USTA Pro Circuit n behalf of the United States Tennis Association, it is my pleasure to welcome you to this 2019 USTA Pro OCircuit event. This year, the USTA Pro Circuit celebrates its 40th anniversary, and since its inception in 1979, the Pro Circuit has been bringing the excitement of world-class professional tennis to dozens of local communities such as this one. In that time, the USTA Pro Circuit has grown from a handful of regional events and is now the largest professional developmental tennis circuit in the world, with more than 100 events held annually, offering some $4 million in prize money. These events not only provide a great stage for some of our sport’s top talents, but also provide a one-of-a-kind experience for thousands of tennis fans who otherwise might not have a chance to experience the pro sport firsthand. All of the players competing here this week are incredibly talented and eager to prove that they’ve got what it takes to take their games to the next level of the sport. Many do. In fact, Pro Circuit alumni have accounted for more than 50 Grand Slam singles titles, and 17 Pro Circuit veterans have risen to No. 1 in the world. For young players, the Pro Circuit is the ultimate proving ground, and for fans, it provides the opportunity to get a glimpse today at the stars of tomorrow. The USTA Pro Circuit showcases the very best of our sport, and that goes beyond the world-class tennis.
