  • ATP2020 Criteria the ATP Award Flights Travel to the ATP Grand Slam, Masters 1000 and ATP Final Matches. to Complete the ATP2020
    ATP2020 Criteria The ATP Award flights travel to the ATP Grand Slam, Masters 1000 and ATP Final matches. To complete the ATP2020 Award, fly to the listed airports from a vUAL hub (not necessarily your assigned hub), arriving between the Arrivals Start Date and the Arrivals End Date. So, for example, arrive in Melbourne YMML between Jan. 19 and Jan. 26. So, even if you're assigned to the Newark hub, you can fly RJAA-YMML to qualify for the award flight (during the specified date window, of course). For Flight#, use your vUAL ID number. For example if you are 277 in the Denver hub, use UAL277 as your Flight# for all ATP flights. You may use Star Alliance liveries for flights originating outside of the United States, e.g., CCA277 coming out of Shanghai. For PIREP Link, go to Pilot Center after your PIREP is approved, right click on the appropriate Flt Number, choose Copy, then paste into the PIREP link cell on this tracking sheet. You do not need to fly to the next tournament airport from the previous tournament airport; other non- ATP flights may be completed between tournaments. You can fly into the tournament airport from any other airport; you can fly to any other airport when you leave the tournament airport. To give newer pilots some "big iron" time, flights for this award are CAT-free; fly any airframe that is appropriate for the journey, regardless of your vUAL rank. Send the completed tracking sheet to your hub manager and assistant hub manager after you finish all the required flights.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE IDENTIFYING OPTIMAL TENNIS BETTING PORTFOLIOS BASED ON VARYING RISK TOLERANCES OF BETTORS NIMAY GODBOLE SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Finance with honors in Finance Reviewed and approved* by the following: Dr. Robert Novack Associate Professor of Business Logistics Thesis Supervisor Dr. Brian Davis Clinical Assistant Professor of Finance Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file. i ABSTRACT This thesis assesses the risk versus return relationship in tennis betting among the different tournaments that exist within the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) Tour, the main men’s tennis governing body. To do so, betting data is gathered from a website well-known for this data collection, http://www.tennis-data.co.uk/. The purpose of this thesis is to identify optimal betting portfolios for bettors with varying levels of risk aversion. Expected returns and standard deviations of Grand Slam, Masters 1000, ATP 500, and ATP 250 tournaments were analyzed to create an optimal risky portfolio using Markowtiz’s Portfolio Theory. Once that was created, optimal betting portfolios were created by betting a portion of the money in the tennis betting market and investing the rest in Vanguard’s Prime Money Market Fund, VMMXX. The key finding is significant; at a risk aversion level of A = 4, the portfolio yields a return of 11.02 percent and a standard deviation of 15.02 percent, which is a higher return and lower standard deviation than the historical average of the S&P 500.
