Djokovic and waterdrop® served sustainable hydration with an all day long tennis activation in NYC’s Times Square and a refreshing waterdrop® “hydration station”, offering a variety of delicious Microdrink beverages. Consumers were encouraged to play a game on the court and given the opportunity to recycle their plastic bottles and make the sustainable swap for a free waterdrop® water bottle.
Novak Djokovic had this to say on joining waterdrop®: “Becoming an athlete doesn’t just rely on talent and training, but also on the choices you make for your body. A healthy lifestyle includes proper hydration with no concessions on environmental impact. I believe that by working together, we can make a real difference and get rid of [plastic bottles].”
In tandem with the brand’s activation in New York’s Times Square, waterdrop® has recently earned the reputable titles of Official Hydration Partner and Gold Partner of the 2023 ATP Tour. These strategic partnerships solidify waterdrop® as a trailblazer in sustainable hydration within the realm of sports, both on and off the court. The collaborations bring forth ingenious on-court hydration benches, specialized hydration products for players and staff, and active involvement with the ATP’s medical team, highlighting waterdrop®’s dedication to holistic wellness.
