Johannesburg, South Africa – Ladies Day is a popular concept at tennis tournaments around the world and this year’s SA Tennis Open to be played at Montecasino in Johannesburg, from February 1 to 7 will be no exception.

Ladies are encouraged to “think Wimbledon’’ and dress glamorously, including some elegant hats. There will be prizes for the best-dressed lady, as well as the lady with the best hat. Prize giving will take place on centre court between matches.
Ladies Day will be served up from 10am in the Hospitality Tent at Montecasino. The ladies will not only be able to watch some of the acclaimed sportsmen in the world in action on court, but will also have an opportunity of meeting some of them at the event.

The cost is R300 per person with all the funds going directly to the Starfish Greathearts Foundation, an international development charity, aiming to bring life, hope and opportunity to children in South Africa, who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS.
