Halle set an attendance record. Queen’s Club added 2,000 extra seats.
But the WTA Tour events didn’t fare as well last week.
There was a very nice crowd for the Birmingham Premier final, no doubt helped by two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova making it.
In Mallorca, a second-year event, it’s been more of a struggle – as it always is for women’s tennis in Spain.
Despite a “buy one, get one free” offer the last few days, the crowd was still pretty sparse for a very good final.
They’ve got work to do there.
