June 5 layoffs mean Tennis Canada staff to shrink by 70% – at least for the summer - OPEN COURT
Tennis Canada laying off 70% of staff. They're funded heavily from profits from the Rogers Cup, so it makes sense, but what a setback for a program that's been so successful.
At least with Canada, you can bank on things to bounce back eventually. The presence of young Canadians means interest will probably return.
It makes you wonder what's on the horizon for the sport in general. There is already questions on how well the sport will whether the transition away from the big 3. A lost year like this will see some fans jump off a bit if they're not captivated by the next generation
