December 2024 Meet a member: Sergi Bruguera, IC of Spain Sergi Bruguera, a name synonymous with precision, determination, and brilliance on the tennis court, continues to leave his mark on the sport even after his retirement. The former two-time French Open champion has seamlessly transitioned from a successful playing career into roles that reflect his passion for giving back to the tennis community. One of his lasting legacies has been his involvement with the International Lawn Tennis Club. Sergi has been a member of the IC of Spain for 10 years, after being introduced to the IC community by longstanding IC members Juan Mª Tintore and Berta Tintore. Their enthusiasm and vision resonated deeply with him, and Bruguera quickly found himself drawn to our club’s mission and values. When asked what he appreciates most about the organisation, Sergi says "More than anything, the commitment, care, and professionalism." This ethos aligns with his own approach to life and tennis, where dedication and respect have been cornerstones of his success. The IC’s commitment to building a sense of community and promoting sportsmanship mirrors Sergi’s own ideals, and it’s no wonder that he has become an integral part of the IC family. His involvement has gone beyond mere membership; it has become a platform for him to connect with players and initiatives that celebrate the broader spirit of tennis. His IC highlight so far is the tennis coaching programme he runs for young people with learning disabilities in Barcelona, supported by the IC Philanthropy Foundation. Each year, the participants get the opportunity to showcase their skills at the Barcelona Open. "The most significant moment for me was when special players were recognized in pictures or media, as it made them feel important and happy," he shared. "Seeing that reflected in their faces really fulfills me, and I am grateful to be able to offer them that moment." As a former player, Sergi’s legacy includes not only his achievements on clay but also his ongoing contributions to the tennis world through the IC. His story is a testament to the idea that the impact of a tennis champion can extend far beyond the court. The IC is fortunate to count him among its members, and the tennis community is richer for his continued dedication to the sport.
