    News Release 22 February 2011 SHANGHAI, DUBAI & BASTAD VOTED BY PLAYERS AS 2010 ATP WORLD TOUR TOURNAMENTS OF THE YEAR LONDON — The ATP announced the 2010 ATP World Tour Tournament Award winners on Tuesday, with the Shanghai Rolex Masters, the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships, and the SkiStar Swedish Open all triumphing in their respective tournament categories. The tournament awards, voted annually by ATP players, recognise leading standards set within the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 (Shanghai), ATP World Tour 500 (Dubai), and ATP World Tour 250 (Bastad) tournament categories last season. Shanghai, Dubai and Bastad continue to lead by example, each having won the awards on several previous occasions. The Shanghai Rolex Masters has captured the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 award in each of its first two years as a Masters 1000 event (2009-10). The tournament, held at the Qi Zhong Tennis Centre, saw Andy Murray defeat Roger Federer in last year’s final to capture his 6th career ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title. "We are delighted that the Shanghai Rolex Masters has been named ATP World Tour Masters 1000 Tournament of the Year by the players for the second consecutive year. We are truly proud of the recognition by the ATP players and believe the award is well deserved. We would like to express our pride in being associated with such a well organized, high standard event and thank the Chinese authorities as well as the tournament organizers, Juss Event, for their hard work and dedication, which greatly contribute to the success of the tournament," said Arnaud Boetsch, Head of Sponsorship, Rolex.
