ROTHESAY INTERNATIONAL EASTBOURNE<br />

WELCOME<br />

Welcome to the Rothesay International!<br />

We are very excited to bring people together to enjoy the<br />

Rothesay Summer Series: the Rothesay Open Nottingham,<br />

Rothesay Classic Birmingham and Rothesay International<br />

<strong>Eastbourne</strong>.<br />

At Rothesay, we’re committed to securing the future of our<br />

825,000 pension policyholders across the country. Which<br />

is why we’ve teamed up with the LTA, who show the same<br />

commitment to the future of British tennis. We share the<br />

LTA’s passion for innovation and excellence, values which<br />

have led us to become the UK’s largest specialist pensions<br />

insurer and a significant investor in important assets such as<br />

social housing, infrastructure and real estate.<br />

The grass court tennis season is one of the great traditions<br />

of the British summer, providing a fantastic opportunity for<br />

British players to compete at home against some of the best<br />

talent in the world. As the LTA’s exclusive pensions partner,<br />

we want to open up tennis to older people, helping everyone<br />

to enjoy tennis at all ages.<br />

Finally, I would like to thank the LTA, the players and the<br />

event staff for making the Rothesay International such a<br />

success and a showcase for international tennis in Britain.<br />

Thank you for joining us, have a great time!<br />

Tom Pearce<br />

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, ROTHESAY<br />

On behalf of the LTA, I am<br />

delighted to welcome you to the<br />

2023 Rothesay International<br />

<strong>Eastbourne</strong> at Devonshire Park.<br />

This is always a special event with strong<br />

playing fields, and I know the players<br />

enjoy the atmosphere here and the unique<br />

surroundings. We’re pleased to once again<br />

be hosting a wheelchair tennis event this<br />

week including both women’s and quad<br />

events.<br />

I’d like to wish very good luck to all the<br />

players, from both Britain and overseas,<br />

who are playing here this week.<br />

I’d also like to thank those we work with<br />

at the WTA, ATP and ITF along with our<br />

commercial partners who make the event<br />

a reality. I’d particularly like to thank<br />

Rothesay for their ongoing support of our<br />

events here, as well as in Nottingham and<br />

Birmingham.<br />

Finally, it’s important to recognise the<br />

contribution of all the officials, volunteers,<br />

staff, and of course fans who do so much<br />

to make this such a welcoming event. If<br />

you’re inspired by what you’ve seen today<br />

tickets are now on sale for the Davis Cup<br />

Group Stages in Manchester in September<br />

via the LTA website.<br />

Best wishes<br />

Scott Lloyd<br />

CHIEF EXECUTIVE, LTA<br />

Devonshire Park, <strong>Eastbourne</strong> | 24 June - 01 July 2023<br />
