BALTIMORE, May 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Slinger Bag (OTCQB: SLBG), a sports brand focused on innovating game improvement equipment for all ball sports with an initial focus on the global tennis market, has today announced the signing of Jamaican-German tennis pro, Dustin Brown, as a brand ambassador.
Brown joins a burgeoning roster of tennis talent affiliated to Slinger Bag, that also includes doubles legends the Bryan Brothers, former world number two Tommy Haas, legendary tennis coach Nick Bollettieri and recently announced world renowned tennis coach Patrick Mouratoglou.
Dustin turned pro in 2002, but really grabbed the tennis headlines in 2014 and 2015 when he caused huge upsets by defeating Rafael Nadal twice, once at the Halle Open and later at Wimbledon. He is one of only two tennis players to remain undefeated against Rafael Nadal in multiple matches, holding a 2-0 career record against the all-time great.
Dustin’s highest career ranking for singles was 64 in 2016, and he was part of the inaugural group of players to compete in UTS, where he was given the moniker ‘the Artist’. On court, he is renowned for his creativity, technique, speed, and entertaining playing style, delighting in pleasing crowds with his trademark trick shots. He also competed for Germany in the 2016 Rio Olympics.
“I love everything that Slinger Bag stands for as a product and brand. For me, tennis has always been about expressing myself on the court,” said Dustin about joining Slinger as a brand ambassador. “As a player, I rely on my creativity, and practicing with the Slinger Bag enables me to work on anything I dream up.”
“Growing up, I didn’t always have someone to play tennis with when I wanted to. But with the Slinger Bag, the entire tennis experience, whether it is hitting with a friend or training for a match, is reimagined. It is the perfect playing partner and I think will help to encourage the next generation of players to bring some more creativity to the court.”
Mike Ballardie, CEO of Slinger Bag said, “Dustin is a great player and, as a natural entertainer, brings a real breath of fresh air to the world of pro tennis. He’s a keen advocate for growing the game and we are delighted to be working so closely with him. He will be actively involved in a wide variety of brand promotional activity, including PAs, press events and demos in and around the world of tennis. He will also continue to push the boundaries of what is possible with a Slinger Bag on court as a user.”
This proprietary Slinger Bag design empowers players to set up and start launching balls within minutes. Players can control both the launch speed and the frequency of the balls using two customizable dials and vary the angle of elevation to suit groundstrokes, lobs or even, in the Ball Boy mode, to practice serves. Slinger Bag is lightweight at 15kg/33 lbs. and multi-functional, holding racquets and other gear, 72 tennis balls, and has pockets for storing wallets, keys, towel and a water bottle. It is also impressively affordable.
