The Aegon British Tour is coming to the grass courts of the North Oxford Club from Monday 8 to Saturday 13 July.
The Tour which runs from January to November each year consists of 40 events plus an end of year Masters, has total prize money of £174,000.00. The end of year Aegon British Tour Masters consists of the top 32 players (men & women) on the leader board at the end of the year, where players play for a £22,000.00 prize money pot.
The AEGON British Tour is designed to compliment the International Calendar giving up and coming players the opportunity to gain experience in their quest to become professional tennis players as well as those already competing on the international stage.
Richard Joyner (Aegon British Tour Tournament Director) says ‘We are delighted to be bringing the Tour to North Oxford, which has a very good reputation for holding the Aegon County Cup each year. The event is in the middle of a series of Pro and British Tour grass court events, and it is likely there will be some world ranked players in action”.
Matches are played during the day, with qualifying on the Monday & Tuesday, with main draw starting Wednesday, with free entry for spectators.’ For further information on the Aegon British Tour go to www.lta.org.uk/aegonbritishtour
