Shanghai, September 26, 2024 - J.P. Morgan is excited to announce its continued support as the Diamond Sponsor of the 2024 Rolex Shanghai Masters, scheduled to take place from September 30 to October 13. Now in its 13th edition, the Rolex Shanghai Masters stands as Asia’s premier ATP Masters 1000 tournament, drawing some of the world's top tennis talent and ranking among the world's most prestigious tennis events.

“China’s recent Olympic medal success in tennis has reignited a nationwide passion for the sport.

“As the highlight of the Asian Swing, the Rolex Shanghai Masters attracts the world’s elite players as well as a diverse fan base from both China and internationally. Our ongoing sponsorship underscores J.P. Morgan’s over century-long commitment to our clients, employees, and local communities,” added Alan Ho, Co-SCO for China, J.P. Morgan. “With our onshore platform, diverse talent pool, and global connectivity, we are well-positioned to help multinational companies expand their presence in China and support local Chinese enterprises in achieving their international ambitions.”
