Tennis Grapples With Funding

Tennis is still unable to make headway despite its advantages, a sport that is played on big-sized courts with covid 19-friendly distance between players but still faces long-standing challenges that date back pre-pandemic. Johnson Koh, Vice-President of Lawn Tennis Association of Malaysia (LTAM) and President of the Sabah Tennis Association discusses the current scene in the sport, updates on how the association is coping with the new normal, and vital decisions needed to be done regarding funding in order for the sport to operate and move forward.
