Wimbledon finalist Milos Raonic has today been announced as the Jaguar brand’s latest Global Brand Ambassador, further strengthening the brand’s growing commitment to world sport.

Raonic joins an impressive list of Jaguar ambassadors including fellow ATP Top 10 players Andy Murray and Kei Nishikori. The Canadian known for his strong serve will wear the Jaguar logo on his kit and will work on special projects to support the brand’s commitment to tennis. In his role as Global Ambassador, Raonic will be working with Jaguar supporting their position in tennis across the Australian, French, U.S. and Canadian markets. He will also drive a Jaguar F-PACE, the Official Car of The Championships, Wimbledon.

Jaguar is a global brand that I really admire and I am delighted to be joining them to work together throughout Wimbledon and beyond. Having their support going into The Championships next week is going to be fantastic. Wimbledon is one of the toughest tournaments on the circuit. I look forward to playing on grass as it allows me to enforce my aggressive game style and keep my opponents off balance.
