Wheelchair Tennis Internacional Tournament
Event
The city of Porto hosts another edition of ITF Future Series Wheelchair International Tournament, a competition that will bring together some of the main names in the sport's world hierarchy.
The tournament, which will once again be played on the courts of Clube de Ténis do Porto, will feature leading figures like Austrian Nicolas Langmann, currently 34th in the world ranking, Brazilian Gustavo Carneiro, 37th on the list, and the Dutch Carlos Anker, 38th. Experienced Italian tennis players Luca Arca and Silviu Culea, as well as Greek Stafanos Diamantis or Frenchman Nicolas Charrier, are also confirmed.
The national representation will be done by the main players in Portugal, such as Jean Paul Melo, 131th of the world list, also Carlos Leitão, currently 136th, and João Couceiro, 272nd.
Given the circumstances related to the pandemic, and since the draw only consists of 16 players, the Portuguese Francisco Aguiar and José Sousa are, for now, as substitutes, and can be summoned if any of the registered tennis players is unable to travel to our country.
