Video - Ostapenko Takes the Wheel of Her Prize Car Won on the Stuttgart Court

Traditions vary between tournaments for the winners.

While in Barcelona, Holger Rune took a friendly dive into the club’s pool with the ball kids yesterday, in Stuttgart, Jelena Ostapenko got behind the wheel of the Porsche she had just won.

The tournament, sponsored by the famous German car manufacturer, displays the prize vehicle (behind the court) throughout the week, waiting to be claimed by the champion.

To conclude the trophy ceremony, Ostapenko took a quick lap around the center court in her new car, all in front of photographers and ball kids (see video below).
