Lot Essay
Signed tennis racquet that Novak Djokovic used to win the final in Cincinnati - a victory that made him the first man to claim all nine Masters events on the ATP Tour - and Djokovic's personal limited edition Seiko Astron GPS Solar World Time watch. Djokovic signed both lot items at a recent charity event co-hosted with Bizzi & Partners Development at the sales gallery for 565 Broome SoHo, a new luxury condominium with architecture by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano.
The proceeds from this lot will go to the Novak Djokovic foundation that supports early childhood education through collaboration and investment in teachers to create the self-sustaining schools necessary for their success. Post Lot Text
