TEN LEADING TENNIS PLAYERS
o TEN LEADING PLAYERS LACOSTE AT HEAD OF LIST Bi Tbltcbath.-Pbbss Association. Copyright. London, October 3. Reviewing the performance of tennis players, Wallis Myers, in the “Daily Telegraph,” asserts that the world’s first ten are Lacoste (France), Tilden (U.S.A.), Cocket (France), Borotra (France), Alonso (Spain), Hunter (U.S.A.), Lott (U.S.A.), Hennessey (U.S.A.), Brugnon (France) and Zozelub. of Czecho-Slovakia. “The classification,” he says, “is based partly on the results ot tho Davis Cup contests as well as the three championships at Wimbledon, St. Cloud, and Forest Hills. Tho Australian leaders are omitted not because their skill does not entitle them to places, but because their return to international tennis is postponed. Unless I am greatly mistaken, both Australian men and women will figure most prominently in Europe in 1928.”
