French Open Roland Garros
 

Officially named in French Les Internationaux de France de Roland Garros or Tournoi de Roland-Garros (the “French Internationals of Roland Garros” or “Roland Garros Tournament” in English), the tournament is often referred to as the “French Open” and always as “Roland Garros” in French.

It is one of the most prestigious events in tennis, and it has the widest worldwide broadcasting and audience of all regular events in this sport. Because of the slow playing surface and the five-set men’s singles matches without a tiebreak in the final set, the event is widely considered to be the most physically demanding tennis tournament in the world.

Defending Champions;
Women’s Singles > Francesca Schiavone (ITA)
Men’s Singles > Rafael Nadal (ESP)
Women’s Doubles > Serena Williams – Venus Williams (USA)
Men’s Doubles > Daniel Nestor (CAN) – Nenad Zimonjić (SRB)
Mixed Doubles > Katarina Srebotnik (SVN) – Nenad Zimonjić (SRB)

      I have no idea whether any other IBM people have yet sent Sportsnet Holidays an email, thanking them for the amazing job they did in getting New Zealand clients to the Australian Open Tennis (and back). I am sure, however, that senior management within IBM NZ will indeed send a formal commendation. In the meantime - from a strictly personal point of view - I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sportsnet Holidays for their patience, forbearance, sense of humour and professionalism in dealing with myself over the travel and accommodation arrangements to take our clients to the Australian Tennis Open. The event project proved to be an enormous success, and Sportsnet's help in putting the package together proved crucial. Please pass on my grateful regards. I look forward to working with them again in the future.

      Just letting you know all 10 of us had a marvellous time in Melbourne at Derby & Cup Day. Everything was top rate. We paid good money to be in the Carbine tent but were not disappointed well worth it. Both breakfasts we had were tremendous. Accommodation was also great, well located clean & good service. Many thanks to you both you did a grand job for us & from a distance most appreciated. I am looking at doing this again plus one of the ashes tests so keep us on the email list. Cheers
