The Hutchinson Builders Toowoomba International is in line to be named the best tennis tournament in Queensland in its inaugural year.
Judged a resounding success by organisers and players following the week-long tournament in February this year, the event has been nominated as a finalist in the 2012 Queensland Tennis Awards.
The Toowoomba tournament will vie for the top prize in its category against the Gold Coast Seniors tournament, the State Age championships and the Cairns Tennis International.
Winners in all categories will be announced in Brisbane on November 3.
Toowoomba Regional Council Tourism and Events portfolio leader Cr Geoff McDonald said the award nomination was an unexpected honour.
Cr McDonald said event organisers and volunteers deserved recognition for their efforts to stage an international-standard tournament at the Toowoomba Regional Tennis Centre ? USQ.
?To be named a finalist in the first year of operation is a great credit to the Toowoomba Tennis Association, Tennis Queensland, Tennis Australia and all sponsors who chipped in to make the event a success,? Cr McDonald said.
?The initial hard work has paid immediate dividends and Hutchinson Builders re-affirmed their major sponsorship earlier in the year.
?The complex was built to International Tennis Federation standards and lived up to its billing in February. The project was a joint effort between Council, the Toowoomba Tennis Association, USQ, the state government and Tennis Queensland.
?Ninety-six professional men?s tennis players entered the tournament in singles and doubles competition.?
Canadian top seed Erik Chvojka defeated second seed Ze Zhang of China 6-2, 1-6, 7-6 (7-4).
Third seeds Brydan Klein and Dane Propoggia won the doubles title against fellow Australians Luke Saville and Andrew Whittington 7-6 (7-4), 6-2.
Tournament director Matt Richards earlier this year confirmed Toowoomba would host the Australian Pro Tour tournament for the next two years.
Tennis Australia is finalising the 2013 competition schedule.
The Hutchinson Builders Toowoomba International is proudly supported by Toowoomba Regional Council?s Sports Tourism Project. The Queensland Government provided Toowoomba Regional Council funding to employ a Sports Tourism Officer to get more Queenslanders active through sport and recreation.
