Traditional linear pathways give way to more diverse routes, accommodating each athlete's unique needs and circumstances. The article delves into the ecological talent development model, considering micro, meso, and macro-level influences on player growth.

By embracing the complexity and diversity of modern tennis pathways, coaches can better support athletes in achieving their full potential. This comprehensive review of the evolving landscape of tennis talent development may offer valuable insights for coaches and stakeholders invested in the sport's future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the coaching profession, women's proportion is much lower than men's, and the multitude of reasons behind it have been analyzed by numerous scientific and professional forums. In the Hungarian context, research has paid relatively little attention to this area, although this is where male dominance is the most prevalent. This is also true for tennis, even if on the international stage, this is the sport where the struggle for the equal recognition of women began, and at present, ITF and WTA are actively engaged in promoting more balanced gender relations. In the Hungarian Tennis Federation (HTF), a Women's Committee was founded in 2020 and has been working towards the promotion of female competitors, managers, and coaches as well, aiming to increase the number of women and to promote their opportunities and progress. Our paper presents the results of empirical research, including (1) an online survey, carried out among women, working as tennis coaches (N1=94), with a focus on their professional progress, prestige, and financial remuneration. Since we did not have any data on the number of female coaches working in Hungarian tennis, it was not possible to take a representative sample of that population, so we tried to reach as many coaches as possible using the snowball sampling method. Additionally, to explore the opinion of employers of coaches, we conducted(2) semi-structured in-depth interviews with top competitors (N2=4), female club managers (N3=3), and the president of the Women's Committee, Andrea Temesvari, former Grand Slam winner in women doubles, WTA No. 7 player in 1984 (www.itftennis.com) who also works as a coach. The results show that female coaches mainly work in leisure and youth tennis, at the level of elite tennis it is uncharacteristic to find a female coach. When compared with men, they mainly sense a disadvantage in prestige, not financial remuneration, which can be explained by existing negative stereotypes concerning their professional competence.

Tennis today is a global sport, which provides a media platform for media and sports event companies to raise the profile of their brands and enhance the market appeal of their consumer goods and services, taking advantage of the high profile and iconic cultural status of relevant players that with the development of a consumer society has turned tennis players into "consumer idols". Undoubtedly, tennis has acquired a globalist character by successfully exploiting the world market and becoming an international game, so it constantly introduces innovations and new resources, to satisfy the needs and expectations of the players, be they professional sportsmen, amateurs, or commercial companies. This has led to the current globalisation, which allows access to techniques, competitions, or products anywhere in the world under similar conditions. The origins and historical trajectory of the development of this global sport are complex and show the transformation from a recreational game to a universally practised, commercialised, and globalised sport, which requires means of innovation in services, policies, and administrative aspects so that the increase in the number of participants in this sport and the economy it generates continues to grow. Another effect of globalisation has been the inversion of the social pyramid of practitioners, which went from royalty, nobility, and aristocracy in the 19th century, to a sport with practically no class distinction, inclusive and with gender equality1.
