Tennis is in safe hands

The ATP challengers which took place in Chennai saw some competitive performance by top players from all over the world. I watched two matches live on day two and it was quite an experience. The energy and the vibe in the tennis courts were highly competitive and exhilarating. Yuki Bhambri, Saketh Myneni, Somdev Devvarman, Alexander Kudryavtsev, Michael Venus, Ruben Gonzales are few players who were seen competing fiercely as the days progressed.

One thing that was obvious out of watching these matches were the fact that these players gave a lot of importance to Challengers. Ramkumar Ramanathan said, “I feel that the ATP challengers are much more competitive than the ATP. The players give a lot of importance to this tournament and travel from all across the globe to participate in them.”

One disheartening fact was that there was hardly any audience for the initial stage of the tournament. A few enthusiastic tennis fans were seen sitting, watching their favourite players battle it out, but on the whole, it was a pretty sad sight. But as the tournament progressed, the crowd improved and there were many people seen cheering for the players.

Watching a challengers match live was a fulfilling experience, as some of the top players from all over the world participated. The tournament was highly competitive and the caliber of the players was brilliant to watch.

By the looks of the dedication and the level of success, tennis is undoubtedly in safe hands.
