    MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, March 20, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Tennis fans from around the world have just a few short weeks to wait until the 2009 edition of the Barcelona Open Banco Sabadell takes place.

The remainder of the international tennis stars set to take part in the event include Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France, Russia's Igor Andreev, Swedish star Robin Soderling and David Nalbandian from Argentina.
