The French Tennis Federation (FFT) will reward nations, whose junior players will excel at this year's junior French Open, by distributing one million Euros for their training and development programme.

FFT will give points to the players on the basis of number of matches they win and accordingly rank the nations for the prize money, the new FFT President Bernard Guidicelly said. "We are going to start with a new trophy named after Philippe-Chatrier awarding the nations to help their young player turn Pro. The Grand Slam nations have to be very careful about the economic model and help nations to involve and get the players in the international level," Guidicelli told reporters.
