May 4, 2021 – The Beck family of Decatur, Illinois, has once again agreed to sponsor the 2021 USTA/Ursula Beck Pro Tennis Classic, a men’s USTA Pro Circuit event held at the Fairview Tennis Complex in Decatur, Illinois.
This is the twenty-second year of the tournament as well as the twenty-second consecutive year in which the Beck family has agreed to be the title sponsor. This year, the tournament prize money continues to be $25,000.
This professional tournament hosts 70 players from over 20 countries competing not only for prize money but ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) world ranking points.
“The 22nd annual Ursula Beck Pro Tennis classic represents one of the many ways our parents, Darrell and Ursula Beck showed their love for their hometown through the gifting of their time, talents, and treasures from the tournament start in 1999 through 2021,” said Matt Beck, son of the late Darrell and Ursula Beck. “They both came from humble beginnings and always looked to help make events such as this a success. We are sure they are looking down on Decatur with love and a big smile as the Beck flourishes again in Decatur. The financial contribution is done through the many fond and grateful memories their children have of them. Good Luck to the Beck!”
This year’s tournament runs from August 2 through August 8.
