ROTHESAY CLASSIC BIRMINGHAM
WELCOME
Welcome to the Rothesay Classic!
We are very excited to bring people together to enjoy the
Rothesay Summer Series: the Rothesay Open Nottingham,
Rothesay Classic Birmingham and Rothesay International
Eastbourne.
At Rothesay, we’re committed to securing the future of our
825,000 pension policyholders across the country. Which
is why we’ve teamed up with the LTA, who show the same
commitment to the future of British tennis. We share the
LTA’s passion for innovation and excellence, values which
have led us to become the UK’s largest specialist pensions
insurer and a significant investor in important assets such as
social housing, infrastructure and real estate.
The grass court tennis season is one of the great traditions
of the British summer, providing a fantastic opportunity for
British players to compete at home against some of the best
talent in the world. As the LTA’s exclusive pensions partner,
we want to open up tennis to older people, helping everyone
to enjoy tennis at all ages.
Finally, I would like to thank the LTA, the players and the
event staff for making the Rothesay Classic such a success
and a showcase for international tennis in Britain.
Thank you for joining us, have a great time!

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, ROTHESAY
On behalf of the LTA, I am
delighted to welcome you to the
Rothesay Classic Birmingham
here at The Edgbaston Priory
Club.
Our thanks go to the club for hosting
this event once again and building on the
success of last year, which saw some topquality
tennis. I hope we’ll be treated to a
similarly impressive performances this year
– so very good luck to all the players, from
both Britain and overseas, who are playing
here this week.
I’d also like to thank those we work with
at the WTA along with our commercial
partners who make the event a reality. I’d
particularly like to thank Rothesay for their
ongoing support of our events here, as well
as in Nottingham and Eastbourne.
Finally, it’s important to recognise the
contribution of all the officials, volunteers,
staff, and of course fans who do so much
to make this such a welcoming event. If
you’re inspired by what you’ve seen today
tickets are now on sale for the Davis Cup
Group Stages in Manchester in September
via the LTA website.
Best wishes
