ATP Challenger Tour welcomes Split, Croatia this week
This week, a new era of Croatian tennis has launched, with the city of Split welcoming players and fans for the first time on the ATP Challenger Tour.
Pro tennis is back in Split, Croatia for the first time since 1998, as the stunning seaside city hosts the inaugural Split Open. One of the most popular tourist destinations in Eastern Europe, the beautiful oasis is nestled along the Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic Sea.

It was 22 years ago that Croatia s second-largest city hosted a one-off indoor ATP Tour event, won by Goran Ivanisevic. This week, the former World No. 2 was on hand to welcome pro tennis to his hometown Firule Tennis Club.
