2007 TENNIS.COM BLOG PROJECT RECEIVES EXCELLENCE AWARD

May 24, 2007 – The Morning News 2007 Editors Awards for Online Excellence – We read and see a lot of web sites, and though most are terrible, some are extraordinary. Presenting the 2007 edition of TMNs annual Editors Awards for Online Excellence.

Favorite Virtual Mixed-Doubles Partners – We love seeing the blog format used intelligently by big publishers: appropriately modeled after a magazines purpose rather than pelleted from the masthead. Tennis has done it well with its male and female versions of Ready, Set, Goal. Featuring two engaging amateur tennis players, Joe in San Jose, Calif., and Kellie in Olathe, Kan., the blogs document their progress as each tries to reach a big goal in the course of a year, enlisting experts and readers to help them along. Fun reading when it’s raining and you can’t get to the courts yourself.
