WTA Releases Statement Confirming Japan Tournament |

The WTA earlier today released a statement confirming the Toray Pan Pacific Open will commence as scheduled later this year:

“In response to a misleading media report, the WTA today confirmed that the Toray Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo will take place as scheduled from September 25 – October 1, 2011 and that the HP Japan Women’s Open will take place in Osaka from October 10 – October 16, 2011. This statement is being issued as a result of a misleading Kyodo News report which could be read as stating that a WTA event in Japan had been cancelled.”

10sBalls.com supports the WTA’s effort, as we hope this will continue to raise awareness and funds for those affected by the devastating quake and subsequent Tsunami that affected Japan earlier this year.
