Clijisters explained: "I am excited to collaborate to pave the way for positive change.

I experienced this firsthand while racing the circuit and I continue to see this need with today's generation." A lot of satisfaction was expressed by Ahmad Nassar, executive director of the PTPA: "Kim, Sania and Marcos are all pioneering figures in professional tennis.
