Fernando Gonzalez to play Movistar Open 2010 in Santiago de Chile

Fernando Gonzalez has confirmed his participation at the 2010 Movistar Open.
The ATP World Tour 250 tennis tournament will be played in Santiago de Chile, 10 minutes away from Fernando's home.

Tournament Director Alvaro Fillol explained: “Of all the places that we visited to establish our site, this is by far the best. We have started building the Center Court, which will have capacity for 4,500 seats. The Hacienda Chicureo executives have been very supportive and so we hope we will stay in Piedra Roja for a long time.”

The President of the Movistar Open, Jaime Fillol said “Once again our major sponsors, especially Movistar, with whom we have a long term agreement, have given us their vote of confidence, which we fully appreciate. This new era will allow us to grow, bringing an even better event each year to Chile.”

Movistar Advertising Director Cristián Rentería added: “Movistar is very happy to begin this new era of the Movistar Open in the capital city of Santiago. We hope our clients will share in our satisfaction with this new facility and with the return of the best tennis to the city. As we have done in the past, we will continue to provide the best technology for spectators, clients and media to ensure high-quality communication within the facilities and to bring the event to the rest of the world through mobile phones, internet and digital TV.”
