| مستخلص: | This article discusses the relationship between a nation's men's professional tennis tournament structure and that nation's success in the international men's game. The 2002 men's professional tennis tournament calendar provided the distribution of events on the top thirty nations. Criteria for a nation's success in men's professional tennis were: nation's number of players with ATP points, nation's number of players in the top 200 ranking, and the combined ATP ranking of a nation's top 5 male players. Pearson correlations were performed between the number of tournaments and each criterion. Results showed a considerable variation in the number of events ranging between 67 (United States) and 4 (Sweden). On the other hand, 29 of the 30 countries had Internationally ranked male player/s and 22 had player/s ranked inside the top 200. Results also showed that: 1. nations with a high number of men's professional events are best positioned to provide for more professionally ranked players, 2. nations with more professional men's tournaments are likely to experience success in the men's international game, and 3. having a high number of tournaments is not a prerequisite to having a group of players ranked among the game's elite. It can be concluded that competition is an important factor in player development and that countries who want to be successful at the professional level should try to provide best competitive progression for their players. |
