Reigning Wimbledon champion Angelique Kerber breezed into Dubai recently.  Ahead of Ms. Kerber’s tournament play in the 2019 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships, the principals and staff of Porsche Centre Dubai fêted the Porsche Ambassador and two-time Porsche Tennis Grand Prix winner at their state-of-the-art Porsche sales and service facilities.

Porsche Centre Dubai, Al Nabooda Automobiles LLC, is the official sponsor of the 2019 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships.  So it is only fitting that the Porsche dealer hosted Ms. Kerber at their dealership.

Porsche has sponsored world-class women’s tennis for more than 40 years.  It began in 1978 when Porsche initially underwrote the very first Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.

The latest iteration is the 42nd annual Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, unfolding in the splendid setting of Stuttgart’s Porsche Arena this year from April 20 through April 28.

Always among many players’ top favorites among the WTA tournaments, the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix will host seven of the Top 10 players.  All current Grand Slam winners are also slated to participate.
