Talk:Association of Tennis Professionals/Archives/2007/June

Opening paragraph, is it correct??
the opening line states: The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) was formed in 1972 to protect the interests of male professional Tennis players. (Female players formed the Women's Tennis Association the year after.)

yet if you go to the women's page (via that link), it states: The Women's Tennis Association began in Houston, Texas when the inaugural Virginia Slims event was won on September 23, 1970.

so which is it? i'm obviously more inclined to believe the women's page, but does that mean whoever wrote this page, did not check facts? or have they got the dates wrong, and the men's was started even earlier?? anyone confirm? i'm just noticing the difference and pointing it out.
