Vladimir Putin sent a greeting to the participants and guests of the 18th International Kremlin Cup Tennis Tournament

October 6, 2007

The greeting reads, in part:

”Once again the Kremlin Cup has gathered the stars of Russian and international tennis, many fans of this spectacular game, and its most dedicated and motivated supporters in Moscow. A week of gripping and tense matches lies before you. The world's strongest players will be on the court in the Olympic sports complex to demonstrate their masterful skills and their right to posses this prestigious cup.

I am confident that this tournament will amount to more than simply a real tribute to the sport: it will once again convincingly demonstrate that Russia has a great deal of experience in hosting such large-scale competitions.“
