St. Thomas Yacht Club presents The 6th Annual Choice Wireless VI Open Tennis Tournament, the only event sanctioned in the VI by the USTA.

It is our pleasure to announce that for the 6th year of the Virgin Islands tennis tournament, the event has a new sponsor. Choice Wireless now has the title sponsorship. Tony Shepherd, CEO and General Manager of Choice Wireless, is looking forward to an exciting and grand event for 2012. “This event, now the Choice Wireless VI Open Tennis Tournament, is crucial for our island athletes; it gives them a home-town tournament to test their skills against players from around the world. We also warmly welcome visiting players and we will treat them to some of the world’s most spectacular weather, beautiful beaches, Caribbean cuisine and of course, the great people of the Virgin Islands.”

Choice Wireless is the premier 4G high-speed Internet provider and cell phone service provider in the Virgin Islands offering a variety of affordable, unlimited monthly plan options. “ The profile of this tournament fits well with our feature-rich phones and high-speed modems. We’re both about fast paced action and top notch performance.”

As usual the tournament will be held at the St. Thomas Yacht Club over Presidents day weekend.  Play will start at 8 am on Friday February 17th through Monday February 20th 2012.  Both local and off island players should be ready to play at this time.  The entry dead line is February 3rd at 5 pm.

• Mens open single ($2,000 W, $1,000 RU, $350 semi)

We would like to thank  Chrysler International and Caribbean Autogroup, but especially Mr. Bill Lambert for providing St. Thomas with the opportunity to start and grow the tournament into what it has become today. The first tournament was held in 2007 and by 2011, this USTA sanctioned event had over 100 tennis players entering from the USVI, Caribbean, US Mainland and Europe, including 8 ATP ranked players competing in 8 different events.  Helga, Elsbeth and the rest of the tournament committee look forward to working with Choice Wireless and the VI Department of Tourism this year as well as many future Choice Wireless VI Open Tennis Tournaments for both our local and off island tennis friends to enjoy.
