Join us in California to meet Łukasz Kubot, the Polish tennis legend, and play alongside a champion!
Łukasz Kubot – a Polish tennis legend
Łukasz Kubot made history as the first Polish player to triumph at the legendary Wimbledon Championships. Recognized as one of world’s leading tennis players, he clinched the doubles titles at the 2014 Australian Open and the 2017 Wimbledon tournaments. With an impressive track record, Kubot secured the top spot as the ATP doubles player, claiming victory in no less than 27 ATP Tour and 21 ATP Tour1 tournaments. Since 2001, he has proudly represented Poland in the Davis Cup. Kubot’s achievement as the first Pole to lead the ATP doubles ranking highlights his exceptional skill. In 2017, he topped the charts as world’s highest-earning doubles player.
Palm Springs
Not everyone knows that Kubot often prepares for tournaments in Palm Springs, a haven for skill refinement and relaxation after intense training sessions. California is also a great place to escape the hardships of Polish winter, for both Łukasz Kubot and… you! Palm Springs offers stunning views of the San Jacinto Mountains against the backdrop of the Colorado Desert. A two-hour drive from Los Angeles, Palm Springs features not only scenic landscapes, but also amazing modernist architecture. Marvel at daring architectural feats, venture into Californian national parks with their rugged desert landscapes, embark on unforgettable hikes and witness awe-inspiring waterfalls.
Indian Wells
Indian Wells Masters, known today as the BNP Paribas Open, is a premier tournament, drawing the world’s top tennis talent and loved by fans of the sport across the globe. Situated some 30 kilometers from Palm Springs, this annual event unfolds at the Indian Wells Sports Garden, a renown sports and entertainment hub boasting a sprawling tennis club open for the public and an entertainment arena hosting diverse events. Over the years, illustrious champions such as Roger Federer, Novak Djoković, Rafael Nadal, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Lleyton Hewitt have graced its courts. The current Indian Wells Masters titleholders are Carlos Alcaraz (men’s tournament) and Iga Świątek (women’s tournament).
Accommodation
A three-bedroom apartment complete with a pool and a hot tub, nestled alongside a golf course and boasting breathtaking vistas of the San Jacinto Mountains… sounds like a dream, doesn’t it? How about spending a month here for a workation and seizing the chance to meet the Polish tennis maestro while you’re at it? Sure, a week or two would suffice, but why not indulge yourself? Experience the best of both worlds – work, travel, relax, host intimate garden gatherings or throw a traditional American barbecue.
