WOMEN OF TENNIS

EAST Miami hosted a special edition of its "Ideas To Wake Up To" series, titled "Women of Tennis: Stories of Resilience and Mindset" at Tea Room as part of its Miami Open activations. The event featured an exclusive panel discussion and live podcast with top WTA players Maria Sakkari, Elena Rybakina, and Jasmine Paolini, who shared personal insights into their journeys, challenges, and the mental fortitude required to excel in professional tennis.

Moderated by Carolina Garcia and Borja Duran of the Tennis Insider Club, the conversation offered attendees a unique glimpse into the resilience and determination that define these exceptional athletes. Guests sipped on tennis-inspired cocktails, specially crafted for the night by the hotel's Bar Lab, with playful takes on classic refreshments from legendary tournaments. Signature drinks like "No Ace… No Paloma," "Straight Up Grass," "Clay On The Rocks," and "Queens Bound Blue" paid tribute to the different court surfaces these athletes have conquered and the dedication it takes to be amongst the best.

A night of inspiration, conversation and celebration, this special Miami Open edition of Ideas To Wake Up To brought together tennis fans, industry insiders, and the local community for an unforgettable experience at EAST Miami.
