Simona Halep scores a major success after signing with a global giant

Simona Halep scores important points in terms of image after signing with a global giant in the management and marketing industry.

Recently back on the tennis court, having played only one match in Miami, Halep signed a management and marketing contract with the giant „International Management Group,” IMG, the most important company in the world of sports, an undisputed leader in the global entertainment industry, writes Fanatik newspaper.

The Romanian decided to terminate the contract she had with “We Sport,” the Swedish agency she had enlisted at the advice of her former French coach Patrick Mouratoglou in 2022, right after the Roland Garros tournament.

The one who convinced her to take this step was lawyer Howard Jacobs, who led Simona’s legal team to the great victory she achieved at CAS, where her suspension was reduced from 4 years to 9 months. Jacobs is also the chief legal consultant for IMG.

IMG holds in its portfolio all four Grand Slam tournaments: the Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and the US Open, as well as famous tennis players, including Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Serena and Venus Williams, Victoria Azarenka, and many others.

“We work with the best because we are the best!” is the slogan of the Americans at IMG, whose Vice President of the Tennis Division, Dutchman Marjin Bal, is Simona’s personal agent.

Simona Halep will return to the tennis court as early as next week, at the WTA 1000 Masters tournament in Madrid, which she has won twice in her career, in 2016 and 2017.
