May 9, 2023 -The Beck family of Decatur has once again agreed to sponsor the 2023 USTA/Ursula Beck Pro Tennis Classic, a men’s USTA Pro Circuit event held at the Fairview Tennis Complex in Decatur, Ill.
This is the 25th Anniversary of the tournament and the Beck family has been the title sponsor for the entire history of the event.
This year, the tournament prize money continues to be $25,000. This professional tournament hosts seventy players from over twenty countries competing not only for prize money but ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) world ranking points.
“This tennis event represents an important way that our mother and father wanted to give back to the community. Although they were both committed to themselves and their family, never a moment went by where they would have wanted to distance themselves from the Decatur Community” said Matt Beck, son of the late Ursula and Darrell Beck. “Ursula had a special place in her heart for the great game of tennis, and with our financial commitment to this event, it is another way for the Beck Family to give back to the community.”
This year’s tournament runs from July 31 through August 6.
