Baseline Ventures, a sports marketing and talent management company has entered into a joint venture with talent management firm SeventyTwo Sports Group to manage 16-year-old tennis player, Maaya Rajeswaran Revathi.
Maaya has been making headlines in junior as well as senior tennis circles for some time. Her performance at the recent WTA 125 event in Mumbai not only gained national attention but also gained her global recognition as she became the youngest ever Indian player to earn a WTA ranking. She is now scheduled to play at the prestigious Wimbledon Juniors, starting tomorrow.
With her talents, Maaya gained the attention of the Rafa Nadal Academy, offering Maaya a scholarship to train in Spain. Maaya trains full-time in Spain under the tutorage of Rafa Nadal and his expert team at the academy.
Maaya Rajeswaran Revathi said, “I am extremely delighted to collaborate with SeventyTwo Sports Group & Baseline Ventures. They’re both known for their commitment to identifying young talents and supporting their journeys. I look forward to learning and am eager to collaborate with them both to pursue my professional ambitions and goals.”
Galo Blanco, Director, SeventyTwo Sports Group, said, “We are incredibly excited to work with Baseline Ventures in guiding and managing Maaya as she embarks on her journey to be one of the best tennis players in the world. We feel she is one of the most exciting & promising talents in international tennis whilst being a smart and articulate young woman who can become a role model for so many. To have the Rafa Nadal Academy, Baseline Ventures and ourselves all behind Maaya at such a young age is the perfect launch platform for Maaya and one we believe she will utilise to the fullest.”
Tuhin Mishra, Managing Director and Co-founder of Baseline Ventures, said, “We are thrilled to have Maaya join our team. Supporting young talents, especially women athletes early on in their careers has always been our vision and Maaya’s exceptional talent & potential aligns perfectly with our values.
