04/12/05 - [CHICAGO]—Wilson Racquet Sports has teamed up with former French Open Doubles Champions Luke and Murphy Jensen to sponsor the “Jensen Brothers Tour,” a series of instructional tennis clinics that are already underway at clubs across the country.
The "Jensen Brothers Tour," sponsored by Wilson, focuses on providing professional instruction for men, women and juniors at clubs and tennis programs nationwide. Wilson is providing tennis equipment for the tour, which includes introducing players to its exclusive nCode line of performance rackets.
"The Jensen Brothers Tour is a unique way for Wilson to demonstrate their grassroots commitment to providing world-class instruction for players of all levels throughout the country,” James Burda, National Promotions Manager for Wilson, said. “Luke and Murphy Jensen bring such enthusiasm and passion for the sport and are ideal to represent tennis both through their accomplishments and endearing personalities.”
Luke and Murphy Jensen, former Grand Slam Doubles Champions, are known for their colorful personalities and on-court excitability and continue to play on the ATP Tour as Wild Cards. Both brothers are also members of Wilson Advisory Staff Speaker's Bureau and Luke is an ESPN analyst.
Information on the "Jensen Brothers Tour" sponsored by Wilson will be available later this month at www.jensenbrothers.com.
