Exciting
new UK based tennis brand MANTIS have today announced former British number 1
Greg Rusedski as brand ambassador.
The
new addition to the MANTIS team comes on the back of a successful first full
year in the market, which has also seen them become the official tennis racket
and ball partner to the AEGON Masters Tennis Championship.
Rusedski,
a US Open finalist, former World number 4 and Great Britain Davis cup star,
will play a major role in future product development and an active part in the
testing of new MANTIS ranges.
The
Wimbledon quarter finalist will be using a MANTIS Tour 305 racket in his day to
day role as a talent and performance ambassador for the Lawn Tennis
Association.
Rusedski,
who also works as a tennis pundit on TV, said; “I am delighted to be joining
the MANTIS team as an ambassador for this exciting new British brand.”
“The
passion, attention to detail and love of tennis was apparent from the first
conversation I had with the guys at MANTIS. Great rackets just have that feel
about them the moment you pick them up for the first time and for me, it was
definitely the case with the MANTIS frame.”
Despite being a relatively new brand MANTIS have had a
fantastic response both in the UK and internationally, with their philosophy of
producing products of exceptional quality at vastly superior prices at the
heart of their core values.
Martin
Aldridge, Founder and Managing Director of MANTIS, said; “The signing of Greg
Rusedski as brand ambassador demonstrates our commitment to the expansion of
MANTIS in the coming years.
“Greg’s
expert knowledge and his experience in the game at the highest level will be
invaluable moving forward as we continue to extend our portfolio of high
quality products.”
