The leading client management company in tennis, IMG, has announced that they signed number 1 Jelena Jankovic. IMG represents some of the top men and women in tennis, including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Maria Sharapova, Venus Williams and James Blake. Nice list of clients isn’t it?
Not only IMG tennis management signed Jankovic, but she also joined IMG Models, the world’s number 1 international modeling agency. This has been a good day for Jankovic.
IMG’s representation started on January 1, 2009 and they will handle marketing and management duties.
“IMG is a global company and a leader not only in tennis, but entertainment, fashion and modeling as well,” said Jankovic in a statement released by IMG. “I’m very excited to partner IMG and look forward to working with them on a variety of exciting tennis, marketing and endorsement opportunities.”
As well as representing some of the top tennis players in the world, IMG represents several big name tournaments, including Sony Ericsson Open, Australian Open, Chennai Open and Wimbledon.
This sounds like a great move for Jelena Jankovic.
