SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - July 15, 2010) - On September 18, basketball superstar Rajon Rondo will be bringing "the rock" to The Rock. The all-star guard will set foot on the infamous island to host the finals of Red Bull King of the Rock, a one-on-one basketball tournament that will culminate with a showdown in The Yard of the former prison. Those wanting to reach the hallowed grounds of Alcatraz must earn their spot through one of six qualifier tournaments that kick off starting July 17 in Los Angeles. After Los Angeles, additional qualifiers will take place in San Diego, Phoenix, Seattle, San Francisco and Oakland. Sixty-four finalists will emerge from these six qualifiers and meet at one of the world's most iconic locations for the final battle. In the end, there can be only one King, so out of the 64 finalists, only one will be crowned "King of the Rock."
