Additionally, there are altogether 42 sponsors supporting the 2017 tennis event, which include 1 presenting sponsor, 3 diamond sponsors, 7 platinum sponsors, 9 exclusive partners, 18 suppliers, 3 exclusive media partners and 1 ticket marketing partner.
According to a recent Yutang TV Viewership Report, the 2017 China Open had four matches in the TOP10 list on CCTV 5 from October 2 to 8, as the Men's Singles Finals was the most watched tennis match on the list.
Zhang Junhui, Event Director of the 2017 China Open, attributes the success to the fact that this year’s event coincided with China’s 8-day National Holiday.
