Former French Open champion Gustavo "Guga" Kuerten will begin his farewell tour in professional tennis at the Brazil Open on Monday. He will face the current No. 75 in the world, the Argentine, Berlocq in the first round. "I love to play on this court. The climate is humid, just like I like it, and I have many special memories from here. I am happy to be here. After weeks of training, I am ready to enjoy this tournament," said the three-time French Open champion in 1997, 2000 and 2001. The groups of the tournament were drawn on Saturday. Guga, the winner of the 2002 and 2004 tournaments, entered the main draw directly due to a personal invitation from the organizers. The No.677 in the world will be the only Brazilian in his group.
