In an interview, the Tournament Director Joao Zilhao said: Its just an invitation we sent to Roger to prepare the Roland Garros in a good way here at the Estoril. We know he would like to play more on clay and we would be here to receive him.
He is very close to Portugal and our tournament is amazing for clay-court lovers. Players who came here loved it. Stefanos Tsitsipas and Alex De Minaur will play in Estoril, as well as the local hero Joao Sousa. We have other players, great names who we will announce when its the right time.
At the moment we have just these two players, but in the next weeks, we will announce other names. I can say that we have a great field for the 2019, concluded Zilhao. ALSO READ: Djokovic would beat Roger Federer in Australian Open final – Evert
