Cabo Abierto de Tenis Mifel (Tenis Open) 2019

A quick glance at the Cabo events calendar shows that the city is preparing for a star-studded athletic tournament: the Abierto de Tenis Mifel.

This Mexican Open tennis tournament draws elite players from around the world together for a week of competition during an ATP 250 tournament. For both locals and visitors who are tennis enthusiasts, this is one of the most highly-anticipated Cabo upcoming events. Sponsored by Mifel Bank, the Mexican Open tennis tournament will fill the city and Cabo event calendar with high energy from July 29 through August 3.

Competition kicks off Monday, July 29, beginning one of the busiest weeks on the Cabo event calendar. Throughout the week of events in Cabo San Lucas, players will compete in both singles and doubles matches. From the first service to the final call of the referee, each day will be packed with competition. The games become more intense as players fight for the championship spot. Of all the Cabo San Lucas events, the fiercest competition will likely come on Saturday during the finals. Tickets to each day of competition increase in price as the final matches approach. To save on tickets, you can purchase a multi-day pass that gives you more access to one of the best Cabo upcoming events. 

One of the reasons the Mexican Open tennis tournament takes over a whole week on the Cabo events calendar is the performances by top international players. This year, Fabio Fognini, the Italian pro, is entering the tournament already at the number ten spot on the ATP rankings. His dazzling performance and ability to break into the top ten will make this one of the most closely-watched Cabo San Lucas events, but he won’t be the only star at the upcoming tennis competition. He’ll be joined for the events in Cabo San Lucas by France’s Lucas Pouille, Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov, and Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman. The other competitors are also top 100 players, which will make this an exciting tournament to watch all week long and one of the highlights of the Cabo events calendar. 

Like many of the other Cabo upcoming events, giving back is a part of the Mexican Open tennis tournament. This year, the tournament organizers plan to donate a tennis court to the local Don Koll sports facilities where aspiring tennis stars in the community can practice like the pros. The tournament director has also announced “efforts with sponsors, staff and the public to reduce the impact [they] generate on the environment.” The events in Cabo San Lucas during the tournament will also include an ATC Family Day, where various associations will be invited to provide health services and advice to local families.

The list of Cabo San Lucas events includes many tournament and athletic competitions, but the Cabo Abierto de Tenis Mifel is perhaps the most star-studded one. As you browse the Cabo event calendar for activities during your upcoming vacation, consider making a day or two of high-energy competition a part of your Cabo experience.
