Alex Guarachi-President and CEO of TGIC Importers

TGIC Importers, Inc. began 25 years ago as a wine import company with only a single Chilean winery in our portfolio. While our beginnings were small, our dreams were big and today our portfolio has grown to include the finest wineries, representing the best winemakers in the world today.

TGIC was founded with the singular focus to bring the best wines of the world to its customers. Our mission is to establish ourselves as a leading international producer, importer and marketer of the finest wines of the world with a rich and diverse portfolio. Through our strong commitments to our suppliers, wholesalers, accounts and consumers, we achieve this through establishing long-lasting relationships and alliances with the best winemakers and distributorships in the world.

Today, we are proud to represent 18 wineries from around the world as a national importer. We also offer a large selection of select imported and domestic wines for wholesale in the state of California. It is our pleasure to introduce to you the exceptional wines of the TGIC portfolio.

Greg Bozzo-President of the Gilroy Garlic Festival

Thank you for your interest in the 2010 Gilroy Garlic Festival.More than 150 local non-profits collect over $500,000 generated at the annual affair, half of which is distributed directly from The Garlic Festival Association.

Garlic Festival organizers have committed to making our event as green as possible over the next few years. During this transition, I hope we meet or surpass modern environmental expectations like sourcing re-useable materials and conscious food selections. Whether it is locally grown mushrooms, fine wines from our valley, pasta made in San Francisco or California grown garlic, residents from The Golden State need not travel far to find locally or regionally produced food. Californian's have always pioneered or adapted quickly to changes. Upon returning to the 2010 festival, I hope you find garlic traditions fused with culinary innovation.

On behalf of the thousands of people who have helped organize the first 31 festivals, thank you for your interest in number 32.

Lindsay Davenport and Sam Querrey-Competing in the US Open Tennis Tournament

Lindsay Ann Davenport (born June 8, 1976 in Palos Verdes, California) is a former World No. 1 American professional tennis player. She has won three Grand Slam singles tournaments and an Olympic gold medal in singles. In 2005, TENNIS Magazine ranked her as the 29th-best player of the preceding forty years. She is one of only four women (the others being Steffi Graf,Martina Navratilova, and Chris Evert) since 1975 who has been the year-end World No. 1 at least four times. Davenport finished 1998, 2001, 2004, and 2005 as the top ranked player.

Sam Querrey

Sam Querrey began playing tennis at the age of four-years-old when he was introduced to the game by his parents Mike and Chris Querrey. Originally from Thousand Oaks, California, Sam was a top junior player in the U.S. winning back-to-back junior hard court titles at the USTA Spring Championships and Easter Bowl in April 2005. Sam also reached the quarterfinals at the Junior US Open in 2004 and the Roland Garros in 2005 before deciding to turn pro in 2006.
From 2005-2007, Sam was a practice partner for the US Davis Cup Team before making his debut on the team in 2008 when the US faced Spain in the semifinals playing in Madrid, Spain. 2008 also proved to be his breakout year on the ATP World Tour, when he came out strong in January with a third round showing at the 2008 Australian Open. Following this, Sam also made the semifinals at Delray Beach before he earned his first ATP World Tour Singles Title at the Tennis Channel Open in Las Vegas.
During the summer clay court season, Sam surprised many by beating Richard Gasquet in the Monte Carlo Masters event to earn a spot in the quarterfinals, but his proudest week of the year came at the US Open where he played some of his best tennis. He won three tough matches advancing to the Round of 16, and then played a stellar match on Labor Day against Rafael Nadal losing in four sets.
After his breakout year in 2008, Sam followed things up in 2009 by advancing to the final in Auckland before the Australian Open in January. Later in the season, he reached the final of three consecutive events including the Campbells International Hall of Fame in Rhode Island, the Indianapolis Tennis Championships in Indiana and the LA Tennis Open in California where he captured his second career singles title in front of his home crowd. He then improved to being ranked #26 on the ATP World Singles Rankings, which made him the fourth highest ranked American behind Andy Roddick, James Blake and Mardy Fish in 2008, and also the youngest ranked player in the top 50 in that particular year.
After a freaky accident in Bangkok, where Sam fell through a glass table and cut his lower arm muscle, in late 2009, he bounced back in 2010 with winning his third career title at the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships in Memphis. He defeated good friend John Isner in the finals, and the two then proceeded to win the doubles title. Sam was also selected to represent the US in Davis Cup action for the second time in his young career.
Currently, Sam resides in Santa Monica, California, which is not too far from where he grew up and went to high school in Thousand Oaks with many of his friends who are now apart of his widely known Samurai Club. The Samurais have received a tremendous amount of attention from tennis fans and media since breaking onto the tennis scene with Sam, and in 2009 were provided a complimentary trip to Indianapolis by the tournament director. You can be sure to catch many of the Samurais at upcoming tournaments who will be cheering Sam on as he continues to climb up the rankings on the ATP Tour.
