The famed tennis star and model, Anna Kournikova, is visiting Guam Oct. 29 and 30 as a part of a USO-sponsored tour to support U.S. military members on island by raising their morale and welfare.

Ms. Kournikova is scheduled to visit Andersen Air Force Base Oct. 29. While here, she will tour the base meeting with Airmen and their families at several locations. Ms. Kournikova will be available to sign autographs from 2 to 2:30 p.m. at the new base exchange; all Department of Defense identification cardholders are invited to attend. The time of the autograph signing is subject to change with no notice. The tennis pro will also visit the elementary and middle schools on base, the control tower and tour a B-52.

Leigh Graham, Director of the USO, said she hopes that Ms. Kournikova's visit is another way to show the armed forces how much the island thanks them for their service to the country.

"The USO is particularly thrilled to have the beautiful, talented and accomplished Ms. Kournikova making a tour specifically to Guam and its servicemembers," said Ms. Graham.
