Every year, we reinvest approximately 90% of our income back into developing the game either directly or via our 213 member Na onal Associa ons. At the heart of this work is our investment in development projects around the world, which ensures solid founda ons for tennis now and in the future. The ITF's goal is to get more people playing tennis, regardless of age, gender, background, playing standard or physical ability. We also want to develop talented players in every country so that we increase the sport's global footprint. The ITF invested $12.5 million in development in 2024. We focus our funding in six areas that cover all aspects of tennis development: par cipa on, performance, events, educa on, facili es and administra on/resources. Of the $12.5 million we invested, $2.94 million of funding was provided by the Grand Slam tournaments via the Grand Slam Player Development Programme (GSPDP). Funding in 2024 was also provided by Olympic Solidarity ($276,000) and an Interna onal Federa on grant from the IOC ($70,000). The ITF's investment also supported the development of wheelchair tennis in 2024. For more details see page 26.
