Baha Mar to host fourth annual Baha Mar Smash celebrity tennis tournament
The casino’s past tournaments have featured tennis stars such as Andy Roddick, Milos Raonic and Victoria Azarenka.
Baha Mar, a Bahaman luxury casino resort, has announced the Baha Mar Smash celebrity tennis tournament and fundraiser which is to take place December 8-11, 2023. The tournament is being hosted in partnership with Brand Innovators and was announced live from the 19th Annual Desert Smash in Indian Wells, California.
The competition, previously named the Baha Mar Cup, is now in its fourth year and will generate money for the Baha Mar Resort Foundation and the Mark Knowles Children’s Tennis Initiative.
Baha Mar President Graeme Davis commented: “Partnering with Brand Innovators, who have nearly two decades of experience producing one of the largest celebrity fundraising events in North America, will be instrumental in taking Baha Mar Smash to new heights.
“We are ecstatic to have collaborators that can assist us with raising funds to support Bahamian youth and the Mark Knowles Children’s Tennis Initiative.”
The Baha Mar Resort Foundation was built on three ‘pillars’ – community, culture and conservation. It is intended to signal the brand’s deep commitment to building a ‘bright future’ for the Bahamas.
The Foundation first partnered with the Mark Knowles Children’s Tennis Initiative in 2019 to host the inaugural Baha Mar Tennis Cup. The latter charity seeks to support the local youth tennis community, enhance public tennis facilities and provide opportunities for at-risk children.
Past tournaments have featured an impressive roster of tennis pros, including Andy Roddick, Milos Raonic, Victoria Azarenka, Jessica Pegula, Cliff Drysdale and James Blake, who have raised more than $174,000.
Baha Mar Smash will take place at The Baha Mar Racquet Club, which features nine tennis courts, with six professional hard courts, two Har-Tru clay courts and the only grass court in the Caribbean.
