Celebrating a champion, on and off the court.
Join in celebrating the 50th anniversary of Chris Evert’s first US Open title by championing the next generation!
Make a $50 gift to support our Jimmy Evert Merit Scholarship Fund to help young people from under-resourced communities receive the training and academic support they need to prepare for life on and off the court.
The Jimmy Evert Merit Scholarship Fund, named after Chris' father, supports academic and college readiness programs, and advanced tennis training through clinics, private lessons and camps for young people from our chapters, primarily high-performance Excellence Program participants, who have the potential to play collegiate tennis, across the country. This training prepares young people to be champions in all aspects of their lives.
“The coaches and players at the Evert Academy pushed me to become the best tennis player and person I could be.
"The Jimmy Evert Scholarship really helped make it possible for me to excel in my first year competing in college.”
