    Messages Mot du député de Roberval, responsable de la région du Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean et premier ministre du Québec L’automne ramène dans notre belle région le Challenger Banque Nationale de Saguenay. D’entrée de jeu, je souhaite la bienvenue et la meilleure des chances à toutes les athlètes du Québec et du Canada, ainsi qu’à toutes celles qui viennent de différents pays prendre part à ces tournois du circuit professionnel. Pendant ces quelques jours de compétition, en plus de se dépasser et d’offrir au public un spectacle enlevant sur le terrain, les joueuses se donnent l’occasion d’accumuler des points et d’améliorer leur classement mondial. Ainsi, grâce à Tennis Canada et à la Banque Nationale, des étoiles montantes du tennis se révèlent, et des carrières internationales se dessinent. Merci de soutenir les athlètes et de contribuer au développement et au rayonnement du tennis. Bon tournoi à toutes et à tous.
