After the success of the MT200 Bogota in 2022, Colombia's capital city is once again front and centre of the ITF World Tennis Masters Tour. MT100 Bogota, which runs from 24-28 October 2023, will be held at the stunning Club Lagartos in the heart of the city.

After impressing with excellent facilities, player numbers and tournament organisation in previous years, Bogota provides the perfect venue to host international players in the 30-65 age groups. 

In addition to the strong competition expected at the tournament, players will have to cope with the additional challenge of competing at altitude in warm temperatures.
