The watch company is celebrating the Ultimate Tennis Showdown competition organised by Patrick Mouratoglou, a friend of the brand.
This tennis personality with tireless energy and vision is considered one of the most influential and outspoken coaches of the sport, having trained some of the greatest players.
Now, Mouratoglou is reaching another star in his career: the creation of his own tennis league, in a totally new and innovative format that seeks to appeal to a younger, more inclusive demographic while emphasising the sense of entertainment in the sport. Dubbed the Ultimate Tennis Showdown, the tournament was conceived during the Covid-19 pandemic as a way of bringing tennis to the masses in an unprecedented format that features a lighter code of conduct, where players can bring out more of their personalities on the court.
To celebrate the debut Ultimate Tennis Showdown tournament and Zenith’s burgeoning friendship with Patrick Mouratoglou, a special rendition of its 1/100th of a second chronograph was in order: the Defy 21 Patrick Mouratoglou edition, featuring a case and bezel crafted in light yet robust carbon, a composite material used in professional tennis rackets.
