We at the Ravine Hotel are pleased to announce the AITA Men’s Open, an annual tennis event. Yes, the Ravine Hotel is having its share of the tennis pie. This event trails the back to all of our past successes as we have held the honor of hosting this tournament for the last 9 odd years. 2003 saw the first of such tournaments at Ravine and now that the Ravine Hotel has added one more pristine tennis court to woo in the top players, here’s what this year’s tournament has in store for you:

• Players from the top of the AITA tennis ranking will be competing together with newcomers and upcoming talent. Tennis of the highest class will on display right here in the valley.

• With a total prize money of Rs. 50,000, this tournament is truly lucrative for the big boys in tennis.
• In line with the Ravine tradition, the tennis club players and indeed the onlookers can definitely expect some start glamour, maybe some celebrity chief guests?! Well, keep your fingers crossed because you never know.

Where else will you get such a tennis playing location with green valleys overlooking the waters of the Dhom Dam and 4 International Class tennis courts with each one having its own unique view to admire. Where else can you practice other than the tennis court adjoining the valley where strong winds play against you and teach you to adjust with the bounce that equals the kookaburra bounce at the Wanderers in Johannesburg. It is definitely not just the tennis or the prize money, but also the locations that will get you in the competitive mood right from the word go.
