Author “US Open will sum up this year’s stats of international tennis rankings” –TravelHouseUK
(PRWEB UK) 20 August 2014
With the final hurdle to seal the Grand Slam series of 2014 initiating from the 25th of August, all players listed for the tournament are being observed in their final stages of preparation for one of the most sought after fixtures in international tennis.
TravelhouseUK is engaged in supporting air travel deals to New York, the destination which regularly hosts the US Open at the famed Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The event’s support is lined by major stakeholders from the travel sector, notably the American Westin hotels and resorts group, as well as Emirates for air travel itinerary options.
The Billie Jean King Center will host its most crucial final matches for men’s, women’s, mixed doubles as well as men’s and women’s singles at the Arthur Ashe Stadium between 5th and 8th of September. Other important stadiums will include the Louis Armstrong Stadium, Grandstands, and multiple courts within the center. Attendants have the options to book the Prom, Log, and Courtside as well as grounds passes within the center, while for viewing they can choose from being on the sides, the corners, or behind the server. Live feeds via the internet as well as active following services will be provided for tennis fans worldwide.
Most of the matches are scheduled to occur either near noon (11 AM) or evening (7 PM). Among the top hopefuls for clinching the titles are previous two-time in a row champion Serena Williams, who has expressed her confidence for her progress during the qualifying stages. She is also highlighted to defend her title on her home turf. Second contender to follow up for the Women’s championship for singles is Maria Sharapova, who only confronts Serena posed as a real threat to become the contender for the final win. The women’s side of the championship has enough vacuum left for new challengers after World No 2 Li Na pulled out from registering for the US Open due to a knee injury.
For the men’s singles category, Rafael Nadal is in rigorous efforts to retain his ability for defending his title after he had a recent wrist injury during practice sessions. This is not his first attempt to make it back to the courts for a major tournament while suffering from an injury. Novak Djokovic features as another favorite for this year’s US Open, as 2014 has been a fantastic year for him considering the high winning ratio he has maintained until now. Djokovic also has been the runner up for multiple US Open appearances in the past. Roger Federer is undergoing the phase of gracefully aging within his active tennis career, maintaining his position within the top seeds of the sport. Scotland’s Andy Murray is listed to be the top challenger; he has fumbled with his strategy, and has mostly remained off-season considering his dampened statistics for his performance over the ongoing year. He has appointed noted Frenchwoman tennis champion Amelie Mauresmo as his new coach to start afresh for a win.

As The Need For Professional Coaches Expands Source Point Training Announces Open Enrollment for Fall Program Coaching Fundamentals and Mastery
Healdsburg, CA (PRWEB) August 06, 2012
Rising demand for executive coaching programs is helping to increase income potential for well trained, certified coaches according to Barbara Fagan, co-founder of Source Point Training (http://www.source pointtraining.com).
According to the 2012 ICF Global Coaching Study, revenues from professional coaching has nearly doubled over the past few years: globally to $ 1.9 billion, $ 707 million in North America alone. The same report shows that in North America the average annual income has risen to about $ 50,000 with median annual incomes at about $ 30,000. Industry trends also show that top-earners are now earning in excess of $ 65,000 a year.
“Rising demand is not only coming from corporations, but from individuals who want more productivity at the workplace and greater satisfaction from their work,” says Fagan. “And the rise in demand is fueled by report after report that shows how effective professional executive coaching really is.”
Fagan shares, “Many people ask me about Life Coaching and what the difference is from our designation at Source Point Training of Certified Professional Performance Coaches (CPPC). When studying with people like Dr. Covey, Larry Wilson, Lou Tice and the works of Peter Druker, I observed similarities in each of their philosophies in one key area – objective results.”
At Source Point Training, we teach our coaches the ground of being performance coaches which is ontological. This means that as we are coaching on particular outcomes, we are also seeing all the inter-dependencies and what will change as a result of achieving a desired outcome.
“In order to be effective today, we cannot live our life in a set of compartments,” says Fagan. “The way that our world is changing, we see the cross over between work, play, family, friends and business associates.”
In Fundamentals and Mastery of Performance Coaching, we equip each participant with knowledge, skills and abilities to become a professional performance coach. Fagan is proud that the ICF has approved their curriculum for 141 CCE units. That’s more than most other coach training organizations.
Program: Fundamentals of Performance Coaching, 84.5 CCE units
Training Dates: Sept. 14-16; Dec. 7-9, 2012; and Feb. 22-24, 2013
Location: Phoenix, AZ
Program: Mastery of Performance Coaching, 56.5 CCE units
Training Dates: April 12-14; June28-30, 2013
Location: Phoenix, AZ
There is a stronger case than ever for offering employee coaching in the workplace, according to new research conducted by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) based in the UK. The report, entitled “Taking the Temperature of Coaching,” highlights coaching as a cornerstone of high performance that focuses on the professional development of individual employees. “Coaching continues to be important in maintaining high performance and developing more agile employees, work practices and organizations [sic],” says Dr. John McGurk, adviser for learning and talent at CIPD.
“Companies with a coaching culture have a proven record of higher levels of employee engagement. Right now is a great time to develop these skills as competition for recruiting and retaining the best talent becomes more competitive as businesses recover and expand”. Fagan shares, “We certify our coaches as Performance Coaches because we feel this is where coaching is headed – coaching higher levels of personal and professional performance.”
People who find themselves in a career transition and who have extensive life experiences in different fields see being a professional coach as a means to generate income and contribute to others. Medical and therapeutic practitioners, fitness trainers and physical therapists are taking up coaching to increase client progress. “This is a great time to become a professional coach,” Fagan adds.
Fagan will be hosting a live webinar on August 21st to answer more questions about coaching trends for today and how you might be a candidate to become a Certified Professional Performance Coach. She will conduct a real time coaching session with people who attend this session. You can join her presentation by registering at Source Point Training Webinars.
