World class tennis on the Centre Court in the Porsche Arena and an incredible atmosphere in the stands: the 47th Porsche Tennis Grand Prix has fulfilled all expectations. Both the Tournament Director Markus Günthardt and the Operating Tournament Director Anke Huber were accordingly highly positive when reviewing the tournament.
Ahead of the final, they spoke about…
...the 2024 Porsche Tennis Grand Prix:
Markus Günthardt:“The tournament was outstanding in every sense. On the Centre Court in the Porsche Arena, the players have once again proven that our tournament is one of the best in women’s tennis. The quality of the matches was amazingly high. The fact that the top stars battled to the very last point is a clear indication just how important our tournament is. Winning the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix counts for the players. Another plus point for our tournament is the fantastic and fair crowd that cheers on each and every player. It’s precisely the thing that we as organisers want. Behind the scenes, we have also set high standards, from gastronomy to shopping and entertainment. We are striving to create a Porsche product that meets the expectations of every individual person. The fact that we were sold-out from Thursday to Sunday and that over 31,000 spectators have found their way into the arena sends a clear message. The media coverage with a total of 74 hours of TV and live stream transmissions in Eurosport and DAZN was also excellent. I would also like to highlight our new show event on Monday that, with its high-quality, might well offer an additional stimulus for future tournaments. All-in-all, I am very pleased with the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.“
...the tournament from a tennis point of view:
Anke Huber:“We have watched tennis of a very high calibre, perhaps the best tennis I’ve ever seen here. The matches, especially those on Wednesday between Laura Siegemund and Marta Kostyuk and between Aryna Sabalenka and Paula Badosa were exceptional. On that day alone, we were able to enjoy over 12 hours of world class tennis. Many matches went to three sets and were hard-fought right to the end. It shows how even and compact women’s tennis is in the meantime, especially at our tournament. We had eight Top 10 players competing, five of them reached the quarterfinals and there were three Grand Slam champions in the semifinals. We are very pleased with the way our tournament has gone. On most days, the action continued into late evening, with some matches lasting over three hours. The players that have made it to the final – Marta Kostyuk and Elena Rybakina – are the two that have performed the best. Both deserve to be in the final and we can look forward to a thrilling final.”
