Tennis has seen a decline in viewership and a drop in young players taking on the game. Here’s how tennis can change for the future.

Change is an ever-present in life – sometimes good, sometimes bad.

The 3 kings who have ruled men’s tennis for the past 16 years; Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic, are all coming to the final years of their careers. Soon the sport will be lost, knowing the once in a lifetime golden generation have all played their last point.

Of course, as one door closes, another door opens, but the fear is that when the big 3 do indeed hang up their rackets, men’s tennis could get lost in the utterly competitive sporting and entertainment industry.

Changes need to be made to keep the sport at the forefront. How can this be achieved?
