Wimbledon Champion Barbora Krejčiková just got better timing
Mar 09, 2025
Rado recently signed Barbora Krejčiková as a brand ambassador, perpetuating its support for the world's most exhilarating players in tennis.
Czech player Barbora is something of a rare talent that defies categorization, dominating singles, doubles and mixed doubles alike. With 12 Grand Slam titles and an Olympic gold medal, she joins a roster of accomplished players representing Rado that personify the athleticism, determination and modern mindset required to succeed in tennis today.
Barbora made her name in doubles, accumulating ten Grand Slam titles and numerous other tournament wins. More recently, she has attracted attention for her incredible singles performance, notching up two further Grand Slam wins: she is the reigning Wimbledon Ladies' champion and triumphed at the 2021 French Open. With the ability to win points from any position, her tenacious, tactical playing style has become something of a trademark.

On court, Barbora combines baseline power with the capacity to surprise opponents – and thrill spectators – with aggressive counterpunches, delicate drop shots, rare forehand slices and perfectly weighted lobs. Her experience in doubles also gives her exceptional skills at the net. She is the latest in a line of world-leading Czech players, frequently partnering compatriot Kateřina Siniaková and having been coached by the late Jana Novotná. Yet, for all her success, Barbora remains wonderfully humble.
As a Rado brand ambassador, she joins a family of players, former professionals and Rado YoungStar talents who showcase the precision, design expertise and vision of Rado watches and the brand's role as Official Timekeeper for international tennis tournaments.
Barbora said: "Perfect timing is everything in tennis, so it's a huge compliment to have been invited to become a brand ambassador for Rado, which has such a long connection with the sport. With its reputation for innovation and mastery of materials, a Rado watch also epitomizes the evolution of tennis. I'm super excited about where this partnership will take us."

The collaboration begins with Barbora wearing an iconic Rado timepiece. The Rado Anatom Automatic is renowned for its astonishing comfort, inspired by the anatomical contours of the wrist. Its Rado calibre R766 movement, which features a 72-hour power reserve, is contained in a stunning matt-black case, with a high-tech ceramic bezel and cylindrical sapphire crystal, while the dial showcases a captivating green-to-black gradient. Its contemporary styling is amplified by a rubber strap that blends all-day comfort with a touch of athletic kudos.
The partnership with Barbora highlights Rado's commitment to professional tennis, celebrating the best players' achievements and cultivating the next generation of tennis stars.
