NEW YORK (Reuters) - The New York City Comptroller said on Thursday that the United States Tennis Association (USTA) had under-reported millions in gross revenue, days before the start of the U.S. Open, the organisation's marquee event and final Grand Slam of the year.
The USTA's National Tennis Center owes the city more than $300,000 (244,718.17 pounds) in rent after it "under-reported at least $31 million in revenue between 2014 and 2017", the comptroller's office said.
