The Riviera Maya becomes a world-class sports destination with the arrival of the new WTA 125 tournament in Cancun. After the last edition of an event of this magnitude in 2020, Cancun is preparing to welcome some of the best tennis players in the world.
Among the confirmed players participating are American Caroline Dolehide, Argentine María Lourdes Carle, German Tatjana Maria, and Australians Maya Joint and Ajla Tomljanovic. This group of talented athletes, along with other prominent players, promises to offer an exciting spectacle for the spectators.
Geoffrey Fernández, operations director of Mextenis, highlighted the importance of this tournament for women's tennis, expressing the desire to position the event within the Mexican calendar alongside established competitions in Monterrey, Guadalajara, and Mérida. The tourist appeal of Cancun and its top-notch infrastructure make this city the ideal place to host a tournament that will attract elite international players.
Carlos Saiz Díaz Infante, tournament director, emphasized the opportunity the event represents to expand the fan base for tennis in southeastern Mexico. The Cancun Open not only seeks to attract locals but also tourists who can enjoy a top-level sporting event in one of the world's most popular destinations.
The tournament, scheduled from February 9 to 15, will mark the return of high-level women's tennis to Mexico and is expected to attract thousands of fans and tourists. The facilities of the prestigious Cancun Country Club will serve as the stage for exciting tennis matches that promise to captivate the spectators.
