The Fla-Gávea Tennis Circuit kicks off this weekend, with 60 matches being played on Saturday (17) and 62 on Sunday (18). In the first class, the match between André Santos and PK Murray is the most anticipated. André has never lost a match on the circuit and won four titles last year. The beast has won 17 consecutive matches, but PK Murray is a very dangerous opponent.

Colombian Julio Perea is one of the standouts of the second round. Julio is in great form and faces Marcelo Aguiar with his sights set on a spot in the round of 16. Celso Ballard makes his debut in the division and faces Fábio Medeiros. Italian Rafa Grandi faces Vitória Almeida on Sunday.

Fábio Maciel is the name to beat in the third class. The Team Flávio player won the second stage with authority and returns to defend his title. Bruno Figueira, runner-up in the last stage, faces Guilherme Righetto. Gentil and Pedro Ruiz should also get the crowd going. The 64 registered competitors take to the court on Saturday, and the winners return on Sunday.

In the fourth class, we'll have a very balanced lineup, with matches that are usually very exciting. The presence of several women and several generational duels ensure a show.

The women's category also promises to excite the crowd. Adriana Cunha, also registered in the fourth class, will face Russia's Tatiana Stepanova. Clarice Goulart, Mariana Magalhães, and Debora Lugão will also be on the court.

The tournament is open to friends and family of the players, and matches begin at 9:30 a.m. A great option for the whole family.
