Mark Miles
ATP CEO Mark Miles has helped a lot to bring Tennis into the major
limelight of interest.
His extreme professionalism was again demonstrated when he arrived
at the WTC Press Conference coming straight out of a plane feeling
completely jet lagged, but still prepared to answer all kinds of
questions with not only patience but with an enthusiasm that showed,
how much Tennis does mean to its probably most traveling representative.
Due to the current and hopefully only temporary decline of popularity
since the disappearance of a Becker, Lendl and of course Big Mac
and Jimbo, the ATP has just introduced important changes to the
world ranking system to make Tennis more understandable and exciting
for the fans.
Somehow it looks, that Mark Miles seems to miss some of the old
big shots, whilst the new heroes, except for Pete Sampras and Andre
Agassi, haven´t created the big enthusiasm as yet.
Looking back at a very spectacular Match between Becker and Sampras,
he was using the expression " it was like a war and probably the
best match I`ve ever seen ".
