New court session is coming for tennis players

Tennis players who can't get enough of the game have another chance to take on some competition.

The United States Tennis Association and the Florida Tennis Cup are gearing up for a new round of one-day recreational tennis tournaments for adults across the state.

More than 1,300 adults participated in the first season of the Florida Tennis Cup, which concluded in April. During the season, 23 tournaments were held in cities across the state.
Organizers say they aim to keep registration fees at a minimum ($10 for USTA members).

Matches are shorter in duration, and the format includes an eight-game pro set with doubles and mixed-doubles divisions, split according to the combined ages of players. At the State Cup Finals, players compete for trophies and prizes.
