We are also preparing a special highlight in the form of a doubles exhibition match between Fiorella Bonicelli and Thomaz Koch, almost 50 years after their triumph in Roland Garros in 1975!

Thus far the IC’s of Argentina, Brazil and Chile are confirmed.. The IC’s of France, Germany and Luxembourg have registered their interest and are still to confirm.

Additionally, for the South American tour, the following will be offered around the IC Uruguay event:

These additional matches will be carried out under the ICs usual guidelines for bilateral matches. Meaning that each IC will make its own lodging arrangements - seeking advice from the local ICs as needed - and will define the composition of each delegation for the host ICs to make suitable friendly playing arrangements.
