Lee Duck-Hee Stars Alongside Novak Djokovic In Australian Open Campaign

The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, which sponsors the Australian Open, "unveiled a marketing campaign that stars Korean rising tennis player Lee Duck-hee alongside World No.1 Novak Djokovic," according to Kwon Ji-youn of the KOREA TIMES. The tennis campaign video series, titled "Your Game, Your Way," features the stories of four people who have made breakthroughs with tennis -- Djokovic; the 1989 French Open champion and the youngest-ever men's Grand Slam winner Michael Chang; Anna, an eight-year-old girl who travels 330 kilometers a week to attend tennis lessons; and Lee. Lee, 16, "speaks about his disability and his dreams." Lee "was born deaf, and can only hear vibrations, so he relies solely on hand gestures for game calls." The video "will air on television and radio throughout the Australian Open, which kicks off on Jan. 19" (KOREA TIMES, 1/8).
