Montjane, Africa’s top-ranked wheelchair tennis player, finds herself well-supported heading into the Games in September.

The partnership entails comprehensive assistance in her preparations, provision of equipment, and overall support towards realizing her dream of securing her first Paralympic Games medal in her fifth appearance at the Games.

''I am really excited about this partnership, it comes at the right time - ahead of the 2024 Paralympics. This support is going to add more value in what I need, to really reach my full potential and reach the hope of being on the podium,'' said Montjane.

 A few weeks ago, Montjane inked a partnership agreement with automotive giant, Mahindra.

She envisions that the surge of sponsors gravitating towards her will serve as a beacon of inspiration for aspiring tennis players, urging them to persevere in their dreams and dedication. Montjane aspires for fellow athletes to draw in sponsors akin to her achievements.

''I Just hope other companies can also channel this kind of support to other athletes, but for me most importantly this is going to give hope to the next champion,'' she added.
