ISTANBUL = Maria Sharapova and Caroline Wozniacki, the former and current world number ones, would welcome the WTA Championships moving to join the men’s end-of-season showpiece.
The women’s Tour, while thriving commercially, has struggled to match the exposure of a men’s game enjoying a golden generation of players and WTA chief Stacey Allaster spoke this week of her support for a joint event.
While initial impressions of the WTA Championships’ debut in Istanbul’s huge Sinan Erdem Arena, where it will remain until 2013, have been positive, Sharapova believes the tournament would sit well next to the men’sATP World Tour finals which are staged in London at the end of November.
