Milos Raonic Joins JMTP Pro Am to Support Underserved Youth Through Tennis
Tennis star Milos Raonic will participate in the JMTP Pro Am to help raise funds for the Johnny Mac Tennis Project, which aims to make tennis accessible to underprivileged children.
Tennis legend Milos Raonic has been announced as the latest addition to the star-studded lineup for the 11th Annual JMTP Pro Am, set to take place on August 16, 2025, at SPORTIME Amagansett. This event, renowned as the world's largest one-day Pro Am, brings together tennis greats and amateurs to compete in a series of matches, all in support of the Johnny Mac Tennis Project (JMTP). The JMTP is dedicated to breaking down economic and social barriers for children in underserved communities by providing them with access to tennis and scholarships to the John McEnroe Tennis Academy.
Since its inception in 2012, JMTP has introduced tennis to over 16,000 New York City children and awarded more than 500 scholarships based on financial need. The Pro Am not only offers a unique opportunity for fans to see their favorite players in action but also includes auctions for rare items and experiences, fostering a vibrant community atmosphere. Limited tickets for the event are available for purchase at proam2025.givesmart.com.
Ryann Cutillo, Executive Director of JMTP, expressed excitement over Raonic's participation, highlighting the players' commitment to the cause. The involvement of high-profile athletes like Raonic underscores the importance of accessibility and opportunity in sports, particularly tennis, for children who might otherwise never have the chance to play.
