A ‘new eye’ on WTA tennis players


Radka Leitmeritz made her name with fashion magazines like Vogue, Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, but the Czech photographer is also a keen WTA tennis fan

In a project entitled Court Supremes, carried out in association with Porsche Central and Eastern Europe, she has set out to change the world’s view of succesful women in sport.

These images, which were first exhibited at a tournament in Romania in August, show players’ human vulnerability as well as their strengths.

Porsche are a long-time supporter of women’s tennis and have sponsored the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix clay court tournament in Stuttgart since 1978.
