The IITHF Class of 2017 was announced this week in Melbourne on Rod Laver Arena, where the new class was welcomed by more than twenty Hall of Famers.

ITHF CEO and former world No. 4 Todd Martin was on hand to welcome the new class.

“The ITHF is charged with preserving and promoting the history of the sport and celebrating tennis’ greatest champions – this group that we have right behind me. We are very fortunate to look at this group and understand that these individuals have made history that we all relish. They’ve inspired the generations that followed them,” remarked ITHF CEO Todd Martin.

Former No. 1s Andy Roddick and Kim Clijsters are among the 2017 inductees.
