Telangana State Tennis Association (TSTA) has joined hands with the Tennis Premier League (TPL) to organise Telangana state-ranking tournaments along with the Race to Gold Scholarship program for the top-ranked players. The RTG program is an effort to identify and nurture India’s most promising young tennis players, ultimately aiming to produce the next Olympic gold medallist. The last time India clinched an Olympic medal in tennis was way back in 1996, through the legendary Leander Paes. The top- ranked players as of November 15 each year will be eligible for the prestigious RTG Scholarship worth Rs 75,000 in tennis equipment. TSTA and TPL will jointly organise state- ranking tournaments in the U-10, U-12, and U-14 categories, creating a structured pathway for young tennis aspirants. These tournaments will take place across multiple cities in Telanganas. The partnership is a testament to TPL and TSTa’’ shared vision of ensuring uninterrupted development for young Tennis players.
