Historical review

The very first ATP Challenger Tour was organized in 1978 and included 18 events. The first two competitions were held in January in Hobart and Auckland, while the next ones took place in the following U.S. locations: Shreveport, Asheville, Birmingham, Raleigh, Virginia Beach, Hilton Head, Wall, Lancaster and Cape Cod. After a series of other tournaments, the final event was held in Kyoto. It is worth noting that the schedule in 2008 included 178 events, which were eventually played in more than 40 countries. ATP Challenger Tour betting is a common activity among professional gamblers.

Ranking points and present-day prize money

The total prize pool of the challenger tournaments accounts for an amount of money that varies from 35,000$ to 150,000$. The number of ranking points depends on whether the tournament provides the so-called hospitality, which includes lodging and food, and on the prize pool the player gets. It is worth noting that the player rankings are based on the number of points accumulated in the previous 52 weeks and in any particular week of rankings. For example, if he managed to accumulate 400 points in the last 52 weeks, he would probably occupy the 100th position. We may conclude that the number of ranking points gained in Challengers can give the player an opportunity to move up in the rankings very quickly.
