Speaking on behalf of the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour, Chairman and CEO Larry Scott bid goodbye on Thursday to one of tennis’ most beloved players, Monica Seles.
Scott has released a statement affirming Seles as one of the greatest champions in women’s tennis history.
“Monica Seles is one of the great champions in the history of the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour, and an inspiration and role model for millions of fans throughout the world,” said Scott.
“No one will ever forget the fierce determination and will to win that Monica brought to the court, nor the caring and warm person that she has always been off the court. Fans of women’s tennis have no shortage of fond Monica memories and of amazing matches and rivalries that Monica was a part of. No doubt, Monica will soon find her rightful place at the International Tennis Hall of Fame for her many accomplishments on the tennis court.”
