The players have said they plan to take part in a few intensive training camps scheduled for this summer as well as a few exhibition tournaments early this fall before finally making decisions on singing the contracts. If everything goes well they should be ready to hit the tour sometime after US Open events.
At this point I cannot disclose the names of players who are seriously interested in playing, as ITST doesn't have the final commitment from them. Training camps that are scheduled for the upcoming weeks will be the determining factor for many. What I can disclose is that all players who agreed to participate are unique and all have something to offer in their style of play and all have expressed desire for future accomplishments on Top Spin 4 tour.
I also hear that some of the coaches out there who follow closely ITST rumors are approaching the players and offer their services. There is a big pool of unemployed coaching talent out there, as well as coaches currently under contracts, offering unique and very targeted regiments for improvement in specific areas. This is a new concept for our TS3 stars who are used to playing with little to no coaching. It will take some of them longer then others, but they will find an appropriate coach to further help develop their strengths at the end.
I am sure many of you are glad to hear this, but please, for now, keep it confidential, after all, these are just rumors.
I will keep you posted if I hear anything else around the office. Stay Tuned!
