As a sport it was clear we needed to do much better for the players, the new structure has a clear aim and that is to support the best young male and female players and to deliver them to the ATP and WTA Tours.

We are really encouraged, it shows they are competing at the right level and are competitive at that level.

Too many people were competing for the prize money available, we want to see a significant uplift( in players making money). It will be one of our key performance indicators that tell us how successful these reforms have been.

Better-targeted prize money will help more players earn a living from the game, we are creating a good environment for juniors to learn their trade, be educated in integrity and doping matters, and they know they will be rewarded for doing well in the juniors.
