WELCOME TO FLORIDA TENNIS MAGAZINE
Florida is "America's Most Important Tennis State," in the words of former U.S. Tennis Association president J. Howard "Bumpy" Frazer. And Florida Tennis magazine over the past 14 years has positioned itself as the "bible" of tennis in the state. That was reflected in the USTA selecting Florida Tennis to receive its prestigious national Media Excellence Award.
Florida is home to the ATP Tour and WTA Tour headquarters and the USTA's High Performance program. Numerous award-winning tennis resorts are located in the state, as are the nation's leading junior tennis academies.
The Sony Ericsson Open, America's second-largest professional tournament and the world's fifth largest, is held in Miami. Numerous other major events are held in the state, such as the ATP Tour's International Tennis Championships and the WTA Tour's Bausch & Lomb Championships.
In November and December, Florida is host to the world's premier junior players at the Orange Bowl and Eddie Herr International Championships and several spin-off tournaments. The state also is host to numerous USTA national adult and junior championships.
The state has produced many of the game's finest professional and amateur champions, plus numerous collegiate champions. At the grassroots level, adult recreational tennis has come into the forefront with a groundswell of tournament competition and leagues.
The magazine was launched in 1992 by Jim Martz, dean of tennis writers in Florida and a vice president of the U.S. Tennis Writers Association. He was the Miami Herald's tennis writer for 18 years and contributed to several national and international publications before starting Florida Tennis. He also was editor of "50 Love, Advantage Florida," a history book which chronicles the first 50 years of USTA Florida.
