What a match! The Bürgenstock Resort is set to delight fans of the popular ball sport with its latest partnership with LUX Tennis. The company was founded in 2018 by former French professional players Joan Soler and Tony Rajaobelina and has since offered tennis-related activities, customized programs and private training for the finest luxury resorts worldwide. Whether it's "LT Star Events" with personalities, such as Mary Pierce and Tommy Haas, or private lessons in the world's most beautiful hotels, there is something for every athlete's heart.
From the 1st of September 2022, LUX Tennis will launch the "LT Legend Experience", where guests will have the opportunity to select from the “LT Hingis Experience” or the “LT Ferrer Experience”. During this special 5-hour course, guests will immerse in the world of first-class tennis together with the Resident LUX Tennis director on-site. They will have the chance to learn tips, advice, and strategies from the tennis legends through videos, put it into practice and implement it into their game.
In addition to more than 20 destinations worldwide, the Bürgenstock Resort is the first destination in Switzerland to offer a partnership with LUX Tennis. Guests will benefit from performance enhancing training strategies and in-depth knowledge by specialist tennis coaches. LUX Tennis aims to provide
unforgettable moments and exceptional experiences where master coaches and ATP-listed professionals share their skills on and off the tennis court.
