In addition to the daily sweepstakes at the Evian Booth, fans attending the tournament on Evian Day will also have chances to win autographed James Blake memorabilia or a full year's supply of Evian. Additionally, one lucky winner will get a chance to hone their skills with a trip for two to Saddlebrook Resort in Tampa, Florida, for professional tennis lessons.

Attendees of Evian Day will receive an experience exclusive to Pilot Pen Tennis – New Haven is the only stop on the Olympus US Open Series where fans have the opportunity to get up close and personal with its hometown tennis hero, James Blake. That afternoon, Blake will host a meet and greet photo opportunity at the Evian Booth to show his appreciation to the Connecticut fans that have supported him throughout his career.

"This year, we're particularly excited about our expanded involvement in the Olympus US Open Series," said Jeff Caswell, Vice President of Marketing for Evian North America. "This year, we're able to bring the full Evian Day experience to New Haven, and with the introduction of ShopEvian.com, we're able to offer fans at Pilot Pen Tennis unique and exclusive opportunities to commemorate their time spent with us at the tournament."

The Limited Edition James Blake Brumisateur The Evian Brumisateur Facial Spray will be hitting stands at the US Open and the Olympus US Open Series with a brand new, limited edition look designed by tennis superstar James Blake.

Evian will be honoring its partnership with Blake by donating a portion of the proceeds from the Evian Brumisateur to USTA Serves and the Harlem Junior Tennis and Education Program.

Blake is one of the top-ranked male American tennis players in the world, and he attributes much of his success to the impact that this organisation had on him as a young man.
