EUROPEAN TENNIS CHAMPS CHOOSE DUNLOP -- Most Popular Racquet Among Top 10 ATP Men --
GREENVILLE, SC, December 1, 2006 – Dunlop has reclaimed its traditional place as the number one racquet of choice for the best professional players in Europe, including Tommy Robredo, among others.
Based on ATP rankings after the end of season Masters Cup in Shanghai, Dunlop is the most widely used racquet among the top 10 European men on Tour, with Tommy Robredo (5), Tommy Haas (7) and Tomas Berdych (9) using Dunlop racquets.
The performance of Dunlop’s racquets continues to impress top amateurs and professionals worldwide. Both Robredo and Berdych renewed their contracts with Dunlop earlier this year, with Berdych declaring that Dunlop would help him reach his goal of breaking into the Top 10 in 2006 -- a feat he has now achieved.
Robin Gibson, Head of Marketing at Dunlop said, “It is testament to Dunlop’s product quality that so many players are choosing our racquets and we are honored to have many other world class players endorse the brand including John McEnroe, Greg Rusedski and 2006 Wimbledon and Australian Open champion Amelie Mauresmo.
“2007 promises to be an exciting year for the brand with the launch of a new and extremely exhilarating “Aerogel” racquet range, which will deliver a major breakthrough in racquet technology. Dunlop has worked closely with its players to develop the new range which will be unveiled at the 2007 Australian Open.” |
