Last fall this item appeared on Bob Larson's Tennis News:The USTA has increased its 2006 budget for player development. Part of the increase from $9 million to $11 million, according to USTA President Franklin Johnson, will be for year-round housing somewhere in Florida. While Johnson did not specify what locations the USTA is considering, USTA observers speculate that Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy, Chris Evert Academy and Saddlebrook Resort are the leading candidates.
In La Jolla, Rodney Harmon mentioned that High Performance was leaving its current Key Biscayne headquarters, and Charlie Bricker, in this brief item, says that Evert is most likely the choice.
Housing will remain an issue for the Southern California training center in Carson, at least until a proposed hotel on the property is built.

Why doesn't the USTA use the vast resouces at the National Tennis Center at Flushing Meadows as a high performance training center? It would be easy to get to for the tennis junior players from the midwest and northeast to get to.
