The Masters Tennis – ATP SENIOR
TENNIS TOUR MONACO AND LONDON
Launch of the ATP Tennis Tour in Monaco
- Nov 03
Sacha’s increasing acclaim in Europe, lead to his invitation
by Prince Albert of Monaco to launch the ATP Senior Tennis tour
in Monte Carlo with a Private View of his latest collection. The
sell-out show was attended by all the old favourites such as John
McEnroe, Yannick Noah, Henri Leconte, Mansour Bahrami, Mats Wilander,
Thomas Muster and Petre Korda and celebrities including Prince Albert,
Michael Johnson and Gerhard Berger. Sacha donated a painting “The
Game” for the charity auction in Prince Albert’s own
Hermitage Hotel. In addition, Sacha produced a “handprint”
painting, with all the players’ (and Prince Albert’s)
handprints and signatures placed on a canvas around which Sacha
created an original work of art. Sacha’s paintings were auctioned
for 55,000, bought by Philip Green of Arcadia Group.
