Dear fans.

I write to you hoping that you are well and in good health during these complicated times.

With deep sadness. I want to inform you that due to the active outbreak of COVlD-19, the Abierto de Tenis Mifel presentado por Cinemex 2020 has been suspended. Unfortunately, the current situation around the world, has forced us to adjourn, in order to preserve the integrity and safety of the fans, the players, and the staff who collaborates in our event.

Just briefly, after weeks of thorough analysis made in close collaboration with Tour members, the ATP extended the suspension of the ATP Tour through to July 31. which means that the ATP events in Hamburg, Bastad. Newport, Los Cabos, Gstaad, Umag, Atlanta, Bastad and Kitzbühel will not take place as scheduled. We support the decision taken by the ATP, for the people’s health is and will always be our priority.

As wise men say, “There is no reason to look back when you have so much to look forward to”. Starting today, we have a new motivation, a new challenge for 2021, where we’ll find ourselves celebrating together the 5th edition of the Abierto de Tenis Mifel presentado por Cinemex in our new home.

After only 4 years of operation, the results have been outstanding. We have all witnessed the  growth of the tournament in one of Mexico’s most beautiful destinations; Los Cabos, The increase in attendance. the economic impact. the reach and positioning of the event confirms the public’s fondness, who values Mextenis’ commitment in hosting high-quality sporting events.

We are certain that the new tournament site, will make the Abierto de Tenis Mifel presentado por Cinemex, one of the best tournaments on the ATP Tour. The design and unique landscape will integrate nature with sport, resulting in a world class event.

Without a doubt, we will miss not being able to host the tournament, not being able to enjoy great tennis or the magnificent gastronomy at the venue, but above all, we will miss you; who year after year, grant us with your presence making this event possible.

Be certain that, for our part, we will be working with thoroughly on making next year an unforgettable event for us all.

Dimitrov and Isner, first confirmed players for the ATP in Los Cabos 2020

Written by Abierto de Tenis Los Cabos on . Posted in News.

This season, the tournament will have a new complex

Acapulco, Gro., February 27, 2020.- The bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov and the american John Isner, will attend the Abierto de Tenis Mifel, presentado por Cinemex, which will be held in Los Cabos, Baja California next July, from the 20th to the 25th.

The fifth edition of the ATP 250 tournament will be held at a new stadium and new facilities, it is located at the Hotel Solaz in Los Cabos. Jose Antonio Fernandez, director of the event, announced that the construction has a progress of 20%. Last year, the tournament was distinguished as the third best organization in his category.

The new tennis complex will have a main stadium with a capacity for 5,000 spectators, a Grand Stand with 1,500 seats, and four alternate courts for matches and training, all of them are hard courts.

During the tournament’s presentation, Daniel Becker (CEO of Banca Mifel) and Rogelio Velez (CEO of Cinemex) reiterated their full support for the celebration of this new phase.

The Abierto de Los Cabos is included in the exclusive group of tournaments of the ATP Tour that has hotel headquarters and the sport complex in the same place just like Acapulco, Stockholm, Umag, and Dubai, which makes it very special.

Jose Antonio Fernandez emphasized the numbers obtained in 2019 during the tournament that was won by the argentinean Diego Schwartzman.

He assured that last year there was 22,751 people, a growth of 6% compared to 2018, this almost doubled the first year.  The tournament almost had 50 hours of broadcast by ESPN, on a 10-year contract. The international coverage was broadcasted in all continents with 600 hours of transmission, with a 23% growth.

Grupo Pegaso and Grupo Olarena share the investment of the new complex, under a 10-year contract, with the desire of becoming the best tournament 250 of the circuit to then become a ATP 500. “The table is set with these facilities, now it is up to us as an organization to have everything ready and treat the players as we do in Acapulco, just like we have characterized ourselves in Mextenis”, said the general manager of the tournament.
