THREE ITF TOURNAMENTS IN SOLARINO

Organized by the director of the "Leonardo Tennis Academy", coach Renato Morabito (in the picture on the left), the appointment with the great female tennis in southern Italy is repeated, in the structures of the "Zaiera Hotel" of Solarino, in the province of Siracusa.

The area of Siracusa, as we know, is well known for its focus on national and international tennis tournaments.

From February 17^th to March 10^th 2018, three consecutive tournaments of the ITF Women's Pro Circuit are taking place on the carpet courts of the Zaiera Tennis Resort, each with a money prize of $ 15.000, in which several professionals in the top 200 of the world ranking will compete with the best emerging players. Every day it is possible to follow different matches, from 9 am to 6 pm, with free entry.

The coach Renato Morabiato, on this occasion, wanted to "thank for the hospitality the director of the Resort and the sponsors". The mayor of Solarino Sebastiano Scorpo highlighted "how the city is satisfied that this international women's tournament of the ITF (International Tennis Federation), in southern Italy, has been taking place in Solarino for four years".

Satisfaction for the organization was also expressed by the director of the Resort, which sees its own structure increasingly crowded with tourists and visitors.

The qualifying matches of the first tournament took place on Saturday and Sunday 17^th and 18^th, while from Monday 19^th the event got into its high point with the matches of the main draw. Eventually on Saturday 24^th of February there will be final of the first tournament. Then on Saturday 24^th and Sunday 25^th the qualifications of the second tournament will start and on March 3^rd the second tournament will end with the final. Afterwards, on Saturday 3^rd and Sunday 4^th of March, the qualifications of the third and last tournament will take place, and it will end with the final on March 10^th.

Among the confirmed protagonists of the event there is great expectation for the Dutch tennis player Michaëlla Krajicek, a player who can count already many participations in the most important tournaments of the WTA (Women's Tennis Association) circuit.
