Several community-driven activities will also run alongside the event. Earlier this morning at 11:00 a.m. (Dec 26), the Macau Tennis Association hosted a tennis clinic for its junior players at the Macao Forum, featuring Mirra Andreeva and Yibing Wu. The duo delivered a truly unforgettable experience on Centre Court, rallying with young players from across Macau and passing on lessons from their own rise on tour—fuelling the juniors’ passion and ambition for the sport.
Adding a meaningful dimension to the weekend, a special sharing session celebrating women’s influence in sport and tennis will take place tomorrow (Dec 27) morning. Titled ‘Four Voices, One Court’, the discussion will be held at 11:00 a.m. at The Fantasy Box on the second floor of MGM Macau, featuring Li Na, Conchita Martínez, Mirra Andreeva and Alexandra Eala in an intergenerational dialogue moderated by Former Hong Kong Olympian and host Robyn Lamsam.
