The ATP Tour 250 Chile Open has been a resounding success for the past three years. The 2020 edition of the tournament saw a return to Santiago after a long hiatus and welcomed some 35,000 fans during the event week. In 2021, despite the challenging circumstances presented by the pandemic, the tournament was held with limited capacity, and Cristián Garín emerged as the winner of the trophy. In 2022, with the return of fans to the San Carlos de Apoquindo court, the tournament broke its previous records with over 50,000 spectators present. For the upcoming 2023 edition, the organisers are optimistic about achieving a similar level of turnout and delivering an exceptional experience for fans and players alike.
The highly anticipated Chile Open 2023 will feature an impressive lineup of top players from around the world. Among the players confirmed for the tournament are Diego Schwartzman (ranked 32nd) from Argentina, rising Italian star Lorenzo Musetti (ranked 20th), and his compatriot Fabio Fognini (ranked 66th). Local favourite Cristian Garín (ranked 100th) will also be competing, alongside Austrian player Dominic Thiem (ranked 99th), both of which have been granted a wildcard invitation to the tournament. The third wildcard is expected to go to Nicolás Jarry (ranked 136th) or to Alejandro Tabilo (ranked 148th). Both these players also have the opportunity to earn a spot in the tournament through the qualifying stage, which offers a chance to enter to the main draw.
In addition to the thrilling on-court action, Betsson’s content digital partner in Chile, Septimo Game, will provide in-depth coverage of the tournament. Fans can look forward to two daily live streams, featuring expert analysis from Fernando González, former tennis player and Betsson ambassador, and Javier Farana, ESPN tennis commentator.
The live broadcasts will be available on Betsson’s Instagram account as well as on Septimo Game’s social media platforms, YouTube and Instagram. All broadcasting will be conducted from an interactive studio located in the fan zone.
