Hello Elentari,
I'm subbing your entry on the professional circuit. Just taking a look at your entry now and I have a query - What does the ATP stand for?

Hi Elentari,
I've read on and have got a couple more questions...
What does WTA stand for?
What are Satellites, Futures or Challengers?
The other thing is that I've reordered it a little, because we don't start Edited Entries with a header. I moved the last part to the beginning - the glamour side of tennis makes a great introduction. Hope you like it Take a look at A931781
Catch up soon

Sorry- hadn't spotted this yet...
ATP is the men's tour, it stands for the Association of Tennis Professionals (but only male professionals, for some reason)
WTA is the women's tour, the Women's Tennis Association. Bit silly of me to forget to explain those
Satellites, Futures and Challengers are all small tournaments that lower ranked players play in an attempt to earn enough ranking points to get automatic entry into the main draws of larger events.
Hope that helps, but feel free to ask for clarification fi it doesn't or you have any other questions, and thanks for editing it, by the way.

Looks great, just a few thoughts...
Maybe a picture - but I don't think there is one
You may want to add that the US Open also has equal prize money, while the French and Wimbledon have a discrepency between men and women.
Perhaps get rid of the bit in the US Open bit about September 11th.
Sorry if you were already planning those!
Keep up the good work
