NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renowned world tennis champion Novak Djokovic is back in NYC, this time teaming up with waterdrop®, the trailblazing pioneer in hydration and beverage innovation, to host a game of tennis amidst the iconic hustle and bustle of New York City's Times Square. The event took place on Thursday, August 24th, delighting spectators and fans alike with an unforgettable experience.
Against the breathtaking backdrop of Times Square, Novak Djokovic demonstrated his skills on the tennis court, engaging in an extraordinary match that showcased the harmony between sports and sustainable living. This momentous occasion underscored waterdrop®'s commitment to promoting sustainable hydration and wellness in sports and everyday life.
Throughout the day, Djokovic and waterdrop® transformed Times Square into a center of sustainable hydration excellence. The activation captivated passersby and tennis enthusiasts, where consumers had the unique opportunity to engage with the tennis pros and embrace the spirit of sustainable competition.
In addition to Djokovic’s visit, another highlight of the event was the waterdrop® "hydration station," where attendees were treated to a refreshing array of Microdrink beverages. While enjoying these delicious waterdrop drinks, participants were encouraged to pick up a racquet and join in a game, fostering camaraderie and promoting an active lifestyle.
