MALLORCA CHAMPIONSHIPS 2021:
4 REASONS FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE EDITION

1. Because Of You: The Fans
After a year and a half in which the health situation caused us great difficulties, in June 2021 sporting events returned and brought with them the chance to go out and enjoy ourselves as we had not been able to do in the previous 16 months. While the 2020 edition had to be cancelled, in the 2021 edition, with capacity limited to 50% and following health regulations, the public enjoyed the best tennis in the world in Mallorca and on grass. The first edition of the ATP 250 was for and by you, the fans, who needed to get out, laugh and unwind. Mallorca Championships 2021 will be remembered as the first edition, but above all as one of the first meeting places for tennis lovers during this difficult situation.
2. For The Players
The 2021 edition featured an amazing line-up. Novak Djokovic, Daniil Medvedev, Dominic Thiem, Casper Ruud, Roberto Bautista and Pablo Carreño are just some of the names of the tennis players we welcome to the Mallorca Country Club. A great tournament welcomes the best players on the planet and the Mallorca Championships is among them. In addition, Feliciano Lopez made history by winning his 500th tour-level victory over Olympic medallist Karen Kachanov in a great match.
3. For The Island
After more than 20 years, an ATP tournament has returned to the island and specifically to Calviá. The Balearic Islands are worthy of an event of this size and international significance that will continue to spread the name of the islands around the globe. The only grass tournament held in our country is hosted by the Mallorca Country Club and the island is proud to have such an exclusive event at world level.
4. For Public Institutions and Sponsors.
Without the public institutions and sponsors it would not be possible for a sporting event of such magnitude to go ahead and we thank you for your efforts, especially if we consider the context of the pandemic in which we were living, we can only say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
