The opening event will be the city's annual Tennis Festival, held between the 12th and the 26th of January, organized by the Israel Tennis Association and the Isrotel hotels chain. This competition will include a three-round tournament for men, and, for the first time, also a women's tournament. Winners will be awarded prices in the sum of 10,000$.
The conclusion of the festival will lead to the opening of International Tennis Federation (IFT) Tournament games, featuring the world's top players – and the tournament is merely the preparation for the IFT's FedCUP games, opening on February 6, hosted by Eilat for the third year in a row. The games feature players from 16 international teams, among them Victoria Azarenka (ranked World No. 1 player) and Agnieszka Radwańska (ranked World No. 3).
Eilat is proud to host the international Tennis events, and its high-quality facilities and hosting gained praise from both ITF personnel and the world's leading tennis players.
