Our Tournament
The Senegal World Tennis Tour is a private initiative driven by tennis enthusiasts, parents of young players, well-known Senegalese coaches, tennis lovers, experienced players, supported by the generosity of sponsors who have made this international junior tournament a benchmark event!
After seven seasons, our annual tournament has become one of the few tennis events in the sub-region and a prime step towards a genuine West African circuit, with a significant advantage: we are at the doorstep of Europe with a climate ideal for playing tennis, an undeniable advantage for foreign players in search of valuable points to boost their careers.
Since October 2022, our experience and the quality of our organization have allowed us to organize not only a J30 level tournament, but also a higher level J60 tournament, which attracts players ranked as high as 200th in the world on the international junior circuit. This was made possible thanks to the trust of the International Tennis Federation (ITF).
