🚨NEW RAFFLE ITEM ADDED🚨 Did you know that the iconic tennis bracelet earned its name thanks to tennis legend Chris Evert? During a match at the US Open, her diamond bracelet famously broke and fell onto the court, bringing play to a halt while she searched for it. And just like that, a jewelry legend was born! Now it’s your chance to serve up some sparkle for a great cause! This stunning 14-karat rose gold tennis bracelet features 1 carat total weight of dazzling diamonds. Timeless, elegant, and effortlessly beautiful, it’s a piece you’ll treasure for years to come. And the best part? Every raffle ticket supports Abilities Tennis Association of NC, helping athletes with intellectual and developmental disabilities experience the joy, confidence, and community that tennis brings. A WINNING COMBINATION!
