Starts of tennis seasons are focused on the Australian Open warm-up and announcements of new clothing deals. Czech-born American Nichole Melichar is introducing a new logo to the courts, revealing partnership with little-known company Neptune Athletics.
The doubles world No.20 published the above photo on Instagram during last week’s Brisbane International, but she confused us when she played her doubles matches clad in Mizuno apparel, her previous sponsor.
A week later, posting from her Adelaide International practice, it looks like Melichar has definitely switched to Neptune, recognizable by the trident logo.
