Djokovic And Bryan Brothers To Play In Necker Cup Pro-Am 
Novak Djokovic has entered the 2012 Necker Cup, the world’s most exclusive Pro-Am, to be held on Sir Richard Branson’s private island Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands Dec. 9-13. He joins the Bryan Brothers and Mark Philippoussis, among others.
Sir Richard Branson will host a five-day world-class Pro-Am tennis event on Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands Dec. 9-13. Sir Richard will join eight current and former ATP and WTA legends to pair up with eight amateur teams of all levels. A handicapped scoring format will be used making it competitive tennis for all tennis levels. Teams consist of one pro and up to two amateurs. Teams compete to win their bracket and earn a chance to play in the Necker Cup Final.
Amateurs can book a space in the Necker Cup Pro-Am by calling 800.376.0975 or visiting www.neckercup.com. You can also win a place directly into the Necker Cup by winning the Life Time Necker Cup Challenge, to be run in eight markets across the US. In addition, you can register to play in the Rosewood Little Dix Bay Legends Tennis Camp at www.neckercup.com/legends, which will take place at the same time nearby at the world-renowned resort at Virgin Gorda and will be hosted by Grand Slam doubles winners, the Jensen Brothers.
Each evening will end with a unique cocktail and dinner experience concluding with an “End of the World” awards dinner, party and auction on Dec. 12 at Rosewood Little Dix Bay where the Legends Tennis Camp participants will have a chance to meet with Sir Richard and mingle with the past and current tennis stars. One hundred percent of all donations from the auction will directly benefit the local BVI community, Virgin Unite, the National Tennis Foundation, Novak Djokovic Foundation and other ATP and WTA player charities.
In addition to the tennis, Sir Richard will kick off a Virgin Unite Leadership Retreat where Necker Cup participants will get to learn from one of the world’s most successful business leaders, as well as other social, sports and business icons.
The Life Time Necker Cup Challenge registration continues with the first two of eight U.S. events scheduled for Tempe, AZ, and Minneapolis, MN, Oct. 12-14. Players can enter the Necker Cup Challenge for a chance to win a spot in the Necker Cup. Events will also take place in Colorado Springs, CO, Boca Raton, FL, Norcross, GA, Rochester Hills, MI, White Bear Lake, MN, Colleyville, TX, and Houston. All winners of each of the eight events advance to the Life Time Necker Cup Challenge finals Nov. 17-19 in Colorado Springs.
