The USTA Pro Circuit was formed in 1979 to provide players with an opportunity to gain the professional ranking points they need to compete on the major pro tours. Celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2019, it has since grown into the largest developmental tennis circuit in the world, consisting of approximately 100 tournaments and offering nearly $3 million in prize money.
The USTA Women’s Circuit has $15,000, $25,000, $60,000, $80,000 and $100,000 tournaments and follows a similar ladder as the men. ITF World Tennis Tour 15s offer $15,000 in prize money and ITF World Tennis ranking points, while events at the 25s level and up award WTA ranking points.
