Dear Tennis Fans:
The 2011 Esurance Tennis Classic is less than a week away!
We're very excited to welcome 2011 Wimbledon Champions Mike & Bob Bryan to The Club at Harbor Point. Joining the Bryan Brothers this year are 2010 Hall of Fame Inductee Gigi Fernandez, two-time U.S. Open winner Tracy Austin, French Open Doubles winner Murphy Jensen, multiple Grand Slam doubles champions Rik Leach and Ken Flach and the Stanford men's and women's tennis teams.
Unfortunately, we just received word that John McEnroe has been forced to withdraw from the Esurance Tennis Classic September 24-25 due to a hamstring injury incurred while playing last month. We had hoped that John would make a speedy recovery but his doctors have advised him against playing. We are pleased to announce that current ATP superstar Sam Querrey has just agreed to join our stellar line-up and will be taking McEnroe's place on Sunday.
We appreciate your understanding and acceptance of the necessary changes made in the line-up due to McEnroe's injury. We have been assured by McEnroe and his agent that he would make every reasonable effort to participate in our event next year. We will do our best to offer a discount next year to those who purchased Sunday tickets. As stated on the web site and the tickets there can be no refunds. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to our tennis fans. Please keep in mind that the success of this event is directed toward raising as much money as we can for our charities: To Celebrate Life Breast Cancer Foundation and Youth Tennis Advantage. We appreciate your continuous support of the Esurance Tennis Classic and look forward to seeing you this weekend.
