PTPA inks Tumi as global partner

The Professional Tennis Players Association has signed international travel and lifestyle brand Tumi as an official global partner. The partnership, created by the PTPA’s for-profit affiliate Winners Alliance, will provide hundreds of professional women’s and men’s tennis players with a selection of Tumi products to help make their travels more seamless throughout the season’s tournaments. In addition, Tumi will have a presence at the PTPA’s player activations and tournaments. Tumi will also be the presenting partner of an end of season award for the most traveled men’s and women’s players. The partnership with Tumi is one of the PTPA's first deals, as the organization has been looking for partners to help pro tennis players move around the world, such as hotel and airline deals (SBJ).
