Tennis Cruise Sets Sail into 2011 with Tennis Cruise to the Sony Ericsson Open

    HAUPPAUGE, NY, December 22, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- For tennis players and fans, Tennis Cruise may very well have it all.

Tennis Cruise kicked off two successful events in 2010 that combined a luxury cruise, tennis playing on the cruise and at ports of call, and attendance at a top tier professional tennis event and they seek to top that success in 2011.

The first event of the new year takes tennis fans to Miami and the Sony Ericsson Open followed by a seven day cruise to the Caribbean where participants will play aboard the brand new Norwegian Epic and at beautiful tennis courts in the Bahamas, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten.

The key to Tennis Cruise is the emphasis on vacation. Many tennis participants bring along non-players because of the sufficient "down time" the event allows.

Bob Lovinger, founder of Tennis Cruise, says his own family was his inspiration, " In my home, my daughter and I love to watch and play tennis while my wife and son have little interest. Tennis Cruise allows all of us to get what we want out of a vacation."

Lovinger admits that Tennis Cruise may not fit the bill for die-hard players that want their six to eight hours of tennis each day. "Tennis Cruise is more of a vacation with a tennis flavor. Tennis enthusiasts will get it all, but they won't get an abundance of tennis playing. It's certainly not a tennis boot-camp,but hopefully they will get enough to quench their tennis thirst."

Based on the early returns, Tennis Cruise has reached a very broad audience both in terms of age and skill level. According to Lovinger, he has players that range in age from 16 to 85 and skill levels from beginners to advanced. The concept to this business, he adds, is that like golfers, tennis players want to play tennis whenever given the chance.

The key seems to be that almost everyone loves to cruise and injecting tennis into the equation is the clincher for enthusiasts of the sport.

The Tennis Cruise to the Sony Ericsson Open begins on March 24 with two days at the Sony Ericsson Open followed by a seven day luxury cruise to St. Maartan, St. Thomas, and Nassau, Bahamas and will feature a soon to be announced tennis legend.
