The 1973 World Championship Tennis circuit was one of the two rival professional male tennis circuits of 1973. It was organized by World Championship Tennis (WCT). In April 1972 WCT signed an agreement with the International Lawn Tennis Federation (ILTF) as a result of which the 1973 men's tennis season was divided in a WCT section, which ran from January until May, and a Grand Prix circuit which was held from May onward. The WCT circuit divided the players into two groups of 32 players, with each group playing 11 tournaments of the 22 tournaments. The four highest ranked players from each group qualified for the season finals in Dallas. The total available prize money was almost $1,250,000.

  • Il World Championship Tennis 1973 è stata una serie di tornei di tennis, rivale del Commercial Union Assurance Grand Prix 1973. Nell'aprile del 1972 la WCT firmò un accordo con la ILTF così da dividere la stagione 1973 in 2 parti. La prima, da gennaio a maggio, dedicata alla WCT con 32 giocatori divisi in 2 gruppi ognuno dei quali disputava i tornei appartenenti al suo gruppo. C'erano 22 tornei di cui 11 appartenenti al Gruppo A e 11 al Gruppo B. I migliori 4 di ogni gruppo si sarebbero poi affrontati nelle Finals di Dallas. La seconda parte di stagione, da giugno a dicembre si decise di dedicarla al Grand Prix in questo modo tutti i tennisti avrebbero avuto l'ooportunità di giocare in entrambi i circuiti e non essere bannati come era accaduto nel 1972.
