Estonian Tennis Association gets two new gold sponsors: Merko Ehitus and E.L.L. Kinnisvara

Amid the festive environment of the Estonian Championships, the Estonian Tennis Association signed a cooperation agreement with two new gold sponsors, Merko Ehitus and E.L.L. Kinnisvara.

Estonian tennis is in better shape than it has ever been in its more than century-long history, and that is true on the elite and amateur levels. 2015 is off to a great start for the country’s top junior players, who have turned in a string of good performances at the international Tennis Europe and ITF tournaments.

Under the Estonian Tennis Association’s three-year agreement with Merko Ehitus and E.L.L. Kinnisvara, the companies will provide more than 100,000 euros for tennis each year. The biggest construction company in the Baltics, Merko Ehitus, will focus on supporting Estonian pro tennis and organizing international tournaments, including a grant provided for the top men’s tennis player, Jürgen Zopp, and, in late July, organizing the Merko Estonian Open in Pärnu. E.L.L. Kinnisvara, among the biggest real estate companies in the Baltics, will support the youth team members, who have shown motivation to train at a top level with potential of reaching the pro tour.
