Leylah Fernandez news: Monterrey Open winner secures partnership with Morgan Stanley

American investment bank, Morgan Stanley, has announced today that they have partnered up with two time Monterrey Open defending champion Leylah Fernandez who is set to support the firm’s initiatives to give back to the community.

Fernandez is clearly still riding the wave of success as she beat Camila Osorio in the final in Monterrey yesterday to retain her title at the Mexican tournament and now she’s a brand ambassador for a leading global firm.

The company has said it’s committed to inspire the next generation whether that’s by developing their life skills through sport or providing scholarships for higher education, which is something the Canadian player is keen to get on board with.

“I am thrilled to join the Morgan Stanley team as an ambassador,” the US Open finalist revealed.

“They have a longstanding commitment to giving back to their communities, which is something I am passionate about.

“I look forward to partnering with the Morgan Stanley team in expanding access to the game of tennis, especially amongst underrepresented communities and diverse youth.”
