Canadian star Félix Auger-Aliassime’s Sponsors

Félix Auger-Aliassime was born to Sam Aliassime, a tennis coach originally from Togo, and Marie Auger, a teacher, in Montreal, Quebec.  His idol, not surprisingly, is Roger Federer.  He is also a big fan of Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Gael Monfils.

Félix Auger-Aliassime was born on the same day as Roger Federer – only 19 years later.  Comparisons with Federer don’t stop there for Felix (called FAA or FA2 by his fans).  He is an all-court player who has powerful groundstrokes that allow him to take control of points.

He had considerable success in the juniors – winning the 2016 US Open singles and doubles. He is also the youngest player ever to win a challenger match.  Felix has high expectations to meet and is making a splash on the ATP tour. He reached the semifinals at the 2021 US Open – his best grand slam result to date. His current sponsors include Adidas, Babolat, Tag Heuer, and Renault.

Aussie Tennis Star Ashleigh Barty’s Sponsors

For Ashleigh Barty, coming from Australia, a country with less than 25 million people has many advantages and disadvantages.  Because of the Australian Open, Australia looms large on the tennis calendar at the beginning of the season.   But the country has also produced some eccentric characters – Bernard Tomic and Nick Kyrgios in recent years.

Ashleigh Barty hit the sweet spot at the right time.  No big-name sponsors want to be associated with Tomic or Kyrgios, Barty is a safe choice and can drive a brand’s success with her success on the court.

As gifted as she is, Barty was burned out in 2014 and left tennis to play cricket.  By then she had reached two grand slam double semi-finals with her compatriot Casey Dellacqua.  The two-year hiatus gave her a break and proper perspective she needed to come back to tennis.   Not long after her return, she began to have success in both singles and doubles.
