Viola, WI (November 5, 2015) — GoMacro®, a family-owned natural foods company, will sponsor the first annual Carlsbad Classic Tennis Tournament — a new Women’s Tennis Association 125k Series Event featuring top-ranked WTA players taking place over Thanksgiving week. With their satellite office located in Carlsbad, GoMacro is excited to connect with their local community through free yoga and GoMacro samples during the weeklong event.

Hosted by American Idol finalist, Kimberly Caldwell, The Carlsbad Classic will take place November 22 – 29, at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort. World-ranked players including Ukrainian Elina Svitolina and Belgian Yanina Wickmayer have entered the tournament, along with many rising American players, including favorites CiCi Bellis, Nicole Gibbs, Lauren Davis, and Christina McHale to compete for a total of $125,000 in prize money. Carlsbad native and GoMacro GoTennis Brand Ambassador, 15-year-old Brett Berger, will be another key player to watch as she competes in her first WTA Tournament. Along with competitive tennis to watch, spectators at the tournament will be encouraged to partake in GoMacro’s complimentary yoga throughout the event.

“The Carlsbad Classic is the perfect partner to share our passion for healthy living and active lifestyles,” said Jola Sonkin, CEO and co-founder of GoMacro. “This year, instead of shopping after Thanksgiving, we hope people will join together as families and celebrate world class tennis.”
