Terracina to host 2019 ITF Beach Tennis World Championships
The International Tennis Federation (ITF) has today announced that the 2019 Beach Tennis World Championships will take place in Terracina, Italy on 10-16 June.
Terracina will host the Championships for the next two years, succeeding another Italian city, Cervia, which has successfully hosted the tournament for the previous six years.
A press conference is being held this afternoon at 4pm GMT with the ITF Beach Tennis Manager, Farivar Tanhai and Gianluca De Risi, from the local organising committee, and will be streamed live.
The Beach Tennis World Championships are the flagship individual event of the Beach Tennis Tour and this year will also be the final opportunity for the players to obtain ranking points that will count towards the inaugural ANOC World Beach Games in San Diego on 10-14 October. As part of the points system reform, this year’s World Championships will allocate ranking points as follows:
