The 60th Copa del Café, an international tennis tournament, will take place Jan. 13-18 at the Costa Rica Country Club in Escazú, San José Province.



The tournament, part of the International Tennis Federation calendar, was scheduled one week earlier this year to align with other junior tournaments, allowing players to compete in Costa Rica before heading to the South American circuit, which begins in Colombia the following week.



The competition will feature 64 players in the under-18 category. Participants include players from Costa Rica, the United States (Mason Taube, Nicholas Mekhael, Sklar Phillips, Gray Kelley, Avner Wong, and Bullion Sharp), Canada (Jerry Han, Edgar Vilain, and Clémence Mercier), as well as France, Mexico, Denmark, Italy, and other countries.



Day matches will begin at 8:30 a.m., while night matches will start at 7 p.m. Tickets are priced between $14 and $25 and can be purchased at the venue box office.





The tournament has undergone significant updates. For the first time, all daytime matches will be played on new indoor courts.


“We will inaugurate four new courts, which, together with our four existing covered courts, will showcase eight beautiful indoor hard courts,” tournament organizers said in a statement.


Night matches will continue to be played under the lights at the outdoor Stadium Court, which has a seating capacity of approximately 2,000 spectators.


The Copa del Café recently received the Tournament Recognition Longevity Award from the ITF, honoring its decades-long tradition in junior tennis.
