Tennis pro #marincilic won the #mercedescup in #stuttgart. The 32-year-old Croatian prevailed in the two-set final (7:6, 6:3) against Felix Auger-Aliassime from Canada. Additionally to the prize money of 53,280 euros, he also takes home the new EQS from Mercedes-EQ.
The first all-electric luxury limousine from Mercedes-EQ could be admired on two podiums within the centre court during the tournament, thus attracting the attention of fans and players. The #tennis pros competed in exciting matches – but ultimately, only one player could be happy about driving home in the EQS: #marincilic.
“I congratulate #marincilic on winning this thrilling final! He put in an impressive performance throughout the tournament and deserves to win the #mercedescup 2021 and the EQS. It is precisely this aspiratio #marincilic n to top performance that forms a solid bond between #mercedesbenz and top athletes like Cilic,” says Britta Seeger, Member of the Board of Management of Daimler AG and #mercedesbenz AG, responsible for Marketing & Sales.
This was the 42nd time that #mercedesbenz was the title sponsor of the #mercedescup. After a one-year break due to the COVID-19 pandemic, spectators on site and on TV once again enjoyed top-class #tennis. The tournament was held on grass for the sixth time and was therefore important for the #tennis professionals in their preparation for the upcoming season played on green courts.
