SA Fed Cup team secure sponsor

Johannesburg - Tennis SA have reached a deal with German manufacturer Topspin to be the official apparel sponsor for its Fed Cup team, the federation said on Monday.

The company's South African representative Philip Van Antwerpen said they were pleased to be part of the 2015 Fed Cup team and looked forward to an exciting year in South African tennis.

"Topspin would like to congratulate Chani Scheepers, Chanel Simmonds, Michelle Sammons and Ilze Hattingh on their selection and wish them the best of luck for the upcoming competition in Estonia," Van Antwerpen said.

The South African Fed Cup team arrived in Estonia on Sunday for this week's Euro/Africa Zone Group 2 competition starting on Wednesday.

Ranked 51st, the team would be up against hosts Bosnia-Herzegovina, Finland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Lithuania, Slovenia and Egypt.
