Note from Liza Horan, Editor
Tenniswire.org readers will recognize this column—it's appeared at blog.tenniswire.org since U.S. Open 2006. Now we are thrilled to present it as "The Buzz" on hellotennis!com, a sister site to Tenniswire.org.
The content is staying the same—you'll still get stories behind the headlines and exclusive details on industry happenings and trends. The articles here spotlight news or events that figure importantly in the growth of the game. A story could be as lighthearted as a top-ranked player's birthday party at a hot club (see Nicole Vaidisova story below) or as straight as a report on the latest statistics showing the popularity of the game.
Either way, the story remains the same—tennis is transcending itself as more individuals, providers and marketers become stakeholders in the game. Hop along for the ride and stay tuned to thebuzz.hellotennis.com.
