“This is a great day for women’s professional tennis and the tournament. We are very, very, thankful for the sponsorship and support Cymbiotika and ResMed Inc., have given to this event,” said Tournament Director Ryan Redondo, who made the announcement during the tournament’s Kick-Off Breakfast event this past weekend at Barnes Tennis Center.
