Tennis Trophies

Trophies

Tennis tournament trophies have really evolved over the years. Traditionally, tournament winners received crystal bowls or silver platters or sometimes fake gold statuettes of a serving tennis player. Nowadays, it often seems as if each tournament is challenging the next by giving the winners an expensive work of "art" e.g., the diamond studded gold balls given to Hopman Cup winners or the "tree sculpture" trophy given to the winner of the ATP Masters Paris. Then of course there is the most expensive trophy of them all... the diamond-studded tennis racket given to the three-time winner in Antwerp!
