Golden Swing

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A it's unsourced. B it's just as notable as anyother mini swingn and there for does not need a separate article. For example you don't see an article about the Australian Open Series (comprises of 3 tournaments) nor the British Grass court swing comprising of 3-4 tournies depending on how you see it KnowIG (talk) 23:59, 3 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Added references to the article. I think the Golden Swing is different from the other two swings/circuits you mention here. The Golden Swing aren't four seperate tournaments (as for example the British Grass court tournaments). The four tournaments were explicitly linked as a four tournament-circuit by the ATP in 2001 (see the first reference). StephanQz (talk) 00:56, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * But so is Brisbane, Hobart Sydney and Melbourne by the Australian Open series coined by Tennis Australia. And that like this swing it is not a separate race like the US Open series (where a money/points race happens). AO series does not have an article and is explictly linked so I was wondering what others thought of this page. KnowIG (talk) 01:04, 4 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, I get your point. The reason why I added this article is because in the last few weeks I read in different media things like "Almagro can be the first player in history to win three Golden Swing-tournaments". Similar articles appeared last season when Juan Carlos Ferrero could win three of the four tournaments. I never read anything similar about the Australian tournaments. That's why I think it's useful to keep this article, since it gives a quick overview of all the (multiple) winners since the circuit started in 2001. — Preceding unsigned comment added by StephanQz (talk • contribs) 01:19, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The point can also be made about the Asian swing as well. But as I said I want to know what others think. As your view point is/was obvious before I start this (no offense). KnowIG (talk) 09:05, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Comment The ATP also calls it the Golden Swing so it is kind of notable of an own article. Kante4 (talk) 02:21, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I think TBF that was already established. KnowIG (talk) 08:57, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
