MONEY DINGLES RINGER WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Welcome to the Money Dingles Ringer World Championships!

For those of us that grew up in tennis, competing and testing your level- finding quality opponents to play at great courts is often a challenge. Tournaments are antisocial and go on too long, they are often expensive and poorly run, and the levels and quality of the competition can be uneven. And the courts, especially around New York, are expensive and subpar.

But we've cracked the code.

Pyramid League and The Golden Ticket are committed to bringing serious players the opportunity to be serious - for a one day round robin dingles event at the nicest courts in New York , the Milstein Family Tennis Center; the home of Columbia University's tennis program -the day before the US Open begins.

Dingles is a mega fun rendition of the sport, and we're hosting a one day 9.0 minimum level team competition, with cash prizes to the winner, finalist, and other 2 semifinalist teams.

We did it a year ago and it was an absolute blast- so much so that our defending champions, the Brazilian team of Rodrigo Mariz and Gio Fragalle are returning to defend their title. It wasn't easy money. It was a hard, fun, action packed grind. The level was high, the players were gassed, everyone played fair.

Everyone gets a tee shirt.

There will be food.

Prize money is to be determined. Last year we doled out a Grand, we're hoping to improve upon that.

Men and women can play, there are no divisions. Teams can be put together however you want. There is no Maximum Level. Minimum level is a 9.0 combined team. You can do the math. Our advice- Get Your Ringer and Get Ready to Rumble!
