Tennis Australia dumped fossil fuel sponsorship.
Perhaps it is time more sports followed their example. Santos is currently sponsoring Australian Rugby and cycling’s Tour Down Under.: “This week, Tennis Australia announced that it had ended a sponsorship arrangement with oil and gas company Santos early. The sponsorship deal covered Santos’ logo being featured in on-court signage at both the ATP Cup and Australian Open and was supposed to run across multiple years starting at the 2021 Australian Open.
With some of Australia’s top sports people calling for climate change action, it is time for more sports to decouple themselves from the fossil fuel industry. Leading figures in rugby, swimming, cricket, surfing, netball, and AWFL have joined the call.
