Mercedes-Benz’ association with some of the world’s premier sporting events is continuing this week as it backs the Hamburg Masters.

The automobile brand has been associated with the ATP Tennis Masters tournaments for the last 13 years and tennis fans will see the three-pointed star at the Hamburg event.

Mercedes-Benz’ logo can be seen on the nets surrounding the court as the greatest players in the world compete on the clay surface at Hamburg.

With over GBP1.8 million of prize money in the offing, all the world’s top stars have turned out to compete including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Britain’s Andy Murray.

Nadal and Murray are set to clash today in the third round of the competition that is seen as a warm up to the French Open at Roland Garros.

The Spaniard, an expert on clay, could well walk away as the tournament champion in what is sure to be a thrilling finish.

What are these icons ?
