backed by Saudi funds




i mean if the UEFA can troll with their super league ideas, i absolutely agree with a alternative elite tennis league tbh

[Nicky91]

to axe the slam tournaments and replace it with this LIV elite league



and well no place for Raducanu in this unfortunately lmao :laugh: you need to be an elite ranked player ;)

I personally would just prefer the Sports to try and maintain their top competitions as top competitions still, rather than letting them die for piss poor attempts at trying to turn everything into NBA, NHL, NFL, or MLB.

like how the MLS are doing their own thing and expanding year by year :)


they currently are the 4th most popular sport in the US, behind NBA, NFL and MLB, they passed the NHL in terms of audience numbers

That is Crazy
They will need Euro and USA Courts
to set it up.

Sure, they have the money to do it.
But will the Good Tennis Stars
move over LIV Tennis?
