According to many the late Brad Drewett was one of the best CEO the ATP has ever had. Unfortunately Brad had to cope with a terrible disease to pass away in May. The ATP has been looking for a suitable replacement for 10thmonth and apparently they found a suitable in Chris Kermode, the actual Managing Director of the World Tour Finals and he is the tournament director at Queen’s
As a pro Chris didn’t achieve great heights as his best rank was no. 141 in the 80s, but apparently he is doing a great job at the World Tour Finals and at Queen’s
Mike Bryan: He is a good dude
Using a typical American (and funny) expression Mike Bryan commented “Kermode’s a good dude. I like him. He supports doubles. He’s done a great job at this event. He’s been good to us at Queen’s.”
Stepping in Drewett position will be quite hard for Chris… but… good luck to him!
