For the first time in professional tennis history, fans can purchase officially licensed player bobbleheads featuring a dynamic mix of the sport’s top stars. The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame has partnered with Winners Alliance to launch an extensive new collection featuring six of the sport’s biggest names. The groundbreaking bobbleheads are available now and mark a major milestone in tennis licensing.
The launch includes limited-edition bobbleheads featuring the following tennis players: Aryna Sabalenka, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, Jasmine Paolini, Jelena Okstapenko, Tommy Paul, and Zhizhen Zhang. As official licensors of Winners Alliance, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame have secured the rights to use each player’s name, image and likeness. The result is a first-of-its-kind program that delivers new revenue to players and deeper connections with fans around the world.
“We’re ushering in a new era of tennis licensing where players can fully unlock the value of their names, images and likenesses, and fans can easily find products that celebrate their favorite athletes,” said Rob Sanzillo, Chief Growth Officer at Winners Alliance. “Partners like 500 LEVEL and the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame share our vision and commitment to building a more athlete-driven future.”
The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame’s debut tennis lineup is available now for pre-order at store.bobbleheadhall.com, with more players on the way. While the world’s largest bobblehead collection has long featured NBA, NFL, MLB, and NHL athletes, this marks its first foray into professional tennis.
“Bobbleheads are timeless. Few things spark fan excitement like seeing the players you root for turned into collectibles,” said Phil Sklar, Co-Founder and CEO at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame. “We’re excited to partner with Winners Alliance to welcome professional tennis athletes into our collection for the first time and look forward to expanding our offerings for fans around the world.”
