Stefanos Tsitsipas and Serena Williams’ coach Patrick Mouratoglou are joining forces to help players that are ranked outside the top100. The Frenchman has recently expressed his disapproval for the fact that low-ranked players have been struggling forever from a financial point of view. That is especially true right now that the tours are suspended because of the Coronavirus. Therefore, Patrick is taking action.
The auction
Stefanos Tsitsipas decided to intervene and help Patrick to raise money to help his struggling colleagues. Fans can make their bids on beyond-100.com to win all sorts of memorabilia and also the opportunity of spending a full day with Stefanos.
Here Tsitsipas’s message:
“Dear fans and fellow players,
Let’s support the tennis tours (men’s and women’s) by raising funds for our sport together.
The world of tennis is built on many levels and what most people don’t see are the players fighting week-in, week-out for their survival on the tour so that they can make it onto the big stage.
These are the players that are struggling the most in these strange times and are facing the reality of having to quit their dreams.
So let’s help them.
Fans, please visit our page and bid on some unique experiences or items that money can’t buy.
Fellow players, click the link in my bio to make a donation or join me by adding items to this online auction which you feel valuable in supporting the players “Beyond 100″.
Together we can make a difference.”
Let’s support our sport together. https://t.co/ppROGj8eXy pic.twitter.com/6IIvJ2OpFn
