Iva Majoli And Arantxa Sanchez Vicario To Play A Tennis Exhibition Match In Bol

WTA 125 K Series Bol Open is going big as on and off court events are mounting up.

WTA tournament in Bol is starting in seven days and on May 22, 2016, we bring you more news about spectacular events on the opening day of the tournament. Two tennis legends, Iva Majoli and Arantxa Sanchez Vicario will hit the court on Sunday, 17.00 CET. Earlier in the day, the qualifications for the main tournament will start, and in the afternoon, a Kids Day will be organized, with the youngest ones getting the chance to meet the stars in person.

Iva Majoli and Arantxa Sanchez Vicario have five Grand Slam titles between them, and while they were active players, the Spaniard won four of their matches, and Majoli has three wins. The home star has the chance to get even, at least in the exhibition game.

And, as we have been spoiled by the tournament director, Mr. Feliks Lukas, we were not surprised by the announcement that the Player’s Party will be staged on the luxury “Katina” yacht, built in the Brodosplit Shipyard, one of the most exclusive parties of that kind in the tennis world. He did not announce the guest list yet, but he is a man on a mission. What we know for sure is that Ana Rucner, famous Croatian cellist will perform there. As she was the star in one of promotion videos published by Croatian Tourist Board, we cannot avoid sharing one of them.

To end the article with some news about the main tournament; wild cards are sent to three Croatian players; Petra Martić, Donna Vekić, and Tena Lukas. This means Croatian tennis will have four participants in the tournament as Ana Konjuh already qualified by ranking. More home players will try to get their chances trough qualification tournament.
