Eugenie Bouchard Becomes Ambassador For Slinger Bag

Baltimore-based Slinger Bag has signed up Eugenie Bouchard as its ambassador. Bouchard joins an impressive list of players and coaches endorsing the brand.

Tommy Haas, Mike and Bob Bryan, Nick Bollettieri, Patrick Mouratoglou and Darren Cahill are ambassadors of the brand. Haas leads the company’s ambassador program that focuses on the growth of the company’s products at all levels of tennis.

Slinger Bag is a ball laucher that helps amateur and professional players improve their game. It comes with an suite of apps designed to improve performance. 

I am thrilled to be joining Slinger and the other tennis stars and legends involved in this amazing new company. I love hitting with my Slinger Bag and think that it has something to offer tennis players of all skill levels. It also opens up tennis as a fun way to get in a workout without the need for a playing partner or coach. I’m going to be using my Slinger Bag a lot during my rehab over the next few months and once I am back playing competitively again.
