President of the Cordoba Tourism Agency Gustavo Santos said yesterday that
"900 million viewers" will watch the Davis Cup final between Argentina and Spain
between November 21 and 23.
"It is a great opportunity. It does not have price. People from Cordoba must
get the dimension of what it means. We all have to make this to be a joint
regarding the image of Cordoba towards the world," Santos was quoted as saying
on the website of the radio station Candena 3.
Meanwhile, governor of the province of Cordoba Juan Schiaretti estimated that
the Sate will spend less than 1.5 million Argentine pesos (some US$470,000) on
the organization of the event.
"I can not talk about an specific amount. The Rally costs around 1.5 million
pesos, we estimate that it will be a lower amount what we are going to spend
sponsoring this event through the Bank of Cordoba and the Lottery," Schiaretti
said.
