Mexico and Tennis: A Perfect “Match” During the 2009 Sony Ericsson Open

 

The Mexico Tourism Board participated with great success in this year’s 2009 Sony Ericsson Open, which took place from March 25 through April 5 in Key Biscayne, Florida.

 

Visitors gathered at the Mexico booth to receive information of the amazing beach destinations the country has to offer and to photograph themselves in different locations in such as the arch formation in Los Cabos, the classic La Quebrada cliff in Acapulco and the archeological site of Tulum in the turquoise waters of the Riviera Maya.

 

On Friday 27th, a crowd of over 14,000 cheered as they heard the announcement of a great giveaway from the MTB, the lucky winner received a round trip package with accommodations to the Riviera Maya. Many more raffles for different destinations like this one took place throughout the event, while the fans enjoyed the games with Mexican-themed cocktails.

 

Tennis fans and fashionistas alike gathered on April 1st at a fashion show, presented by the MTB, to preview the silky Spring/Summer 2009 collection of Mexican Fashion House Pineda Covalin.

 

Mexico’s participation at the SEO was a total success, so much you could say it was the perfect “match!”
