8. WHY ADVERTISE IN TENNIS?
Advertising in Tennis games of regional and/or local interest can help
associate your business with the loyalty and passion consumers have
for their favorite player.
All eyes will be on Juan Martin del Potro as he makes his triumphant
return in 2015. Sidelined by a wrist surgery since early 2014, the
former World #4 Juan has been practicing well and has his sights set
on the Australian Open.
Roger Federer chases the top spot currently held by Djokovic and
hopes to reclaim the lead and be World #1. Federer, the year-end No.
1 from 2004-07 and in 2009 – is looking to become the second player
to hold, lose and regain the year-end No. 1 mantle on two
occasions. Rafael Nadal became the first to accomplish the feat last
year, following his previous No. 1 finishes in 2008 and 2010.
Powered by the best serve in the women’s game can The USA’s
Serena Williams hold the top spot and be #1 in the World in 2015?
From 2002 through 2003 she won four consecutive Grand Slam
singles titles (2002 French Open, 2002 Wimbledon, 2002 U.S. Open,
2003 Australian Open), a feat that was dubbed the “Serena Slam.”
Williams is the fifth woman, behind Maureen Connolly, Margaret
Court, Martina Navratilova and Steffi Graf, to hold all four major titles
simultaneously.
