Gucci Celebrates Tennis Star Jannik Sinner Ahead of Wimbledon at London’s Claridge’s
As Wimbledon approaches, Gucci pulled out all the stops to celebrate their tennis superstar ambassador, Jannik Sinner, with an exclusive soirée at London’s prestigious Claridge’s on Thursday evening. Fresh off an intense French Open final, the men’s number one was joined by a star-studded guest list including the likes of Paul Mescal, Naomi Ackie, Erin Doherty, and Joe Keery, setting the stage for the upcoming Championships at SW19.
The elegant event was adorned with beautiful pink dahlias and peonies, where attendees enjoyed expertly crafted Negronis served with Gucci-branded ice cubes. A delectable dinner featuring seasonal asparagus, Cornish brill, and lemon vacherin was served as guests engaged in lively conversations about tennis, Glastonbury, and their upcoming summer plans. It was evident that some of these celebrities might be spotted at the All England Tennis Club during the tournament, possibly sporting Gucci’s latest tennis collection for their own on-court adventures.
Jannik Sinner, who had taken some time off at his parents’ home in the South Tyrol region of northeast Italy, arrived at Wimbledon feeling rejuvenated. Reflecting on his break, he shared with Vogue, “We made barbecue, I played some table tennis with my friends—it was some good time off, and then after some days, I came to prepare for the tournament here. So, yeah—everything was good, was relaxed and now I’m back—so let’s see what we can do.”
The intimate dinner hosted by Gucci in honor of Jannik Sinner brought together a constellation of stars, setting the stage for an exciting Wimbledon season ahead. Stay tuned for more updates from the prestigious tournament as these luminaries continue to shine both on and off the tennis court.
