According to twitter, Brad Drewett has been named as the new ATP President. I know very little about him (and what I do know comes from Wikipedia). Is this a good appointment? Bad? A step forward or more of the same old, same old?

Thoughts?

Brad is a good choice and already has played key roles in ATP. Congrats to Brad. Look forward to his tenure. I think Helfant thinks very highly of Drewett as well.

Neil Harman and Richard Ingham Evans also seem pretty positive - especially about Drewetts work in Asia. Could be a good appointment. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next year re the 1yr vs 2yr ranking debate (got so stay 1 yr surely?!?!?!?!) and the tournament schedule. Interesting times.
