Roberto Carballés has received this Wednesday the Kia XCeed Plug-in Hybrid car that recognizes it as “Best Player of the MAPFRE Tennis League” disputed in 2020. The director of the dealership ARM Motor S.L. from Granada, Alejandro Castilla, has delivered the vehicle to him in the adopted city of the Tenerife tennis player.
“I am very happy and grateful. I like the car very much, the color has pleasantly surprised me and I have very good feelings, I really want to try it”, commented the 27-year-old tennis player located in the Top-100 of the world ranking.
Kia's commitment to sport
For the director of ARM Motor S.L., Alejandro Castilla: “The commitment of Kia and its dealer network with professional and grassroots sports is absolute. Tennis occupies a fundamental place within it. This delivery of an XCeed to Roberto shows that a job well done, perseverance and sacrifice, all of them values in which we believe bear fruit. We are delighted to have an ambassador of this category and with this projection. “
Castilla has recalled that Kia continues to “support the whole of Granada sports through our agreements with the CB Granada Foundation, sponsorships of sporting events such as popular races in Granada and the province, university, MTB, solidarity races, golf tournaments, and ambassadors such as Pablo Aguilar and his sister Macarena. “
Punctuation system
Carballés added 12 points in the league organized by the Royal Spanish Tennis Federation (RFET) last year to facilitate the return to competition of Spanish tennis players after the break due to COVID-19. Pablo Carreño finished second with 10.5 points and Pedro Martínez Portero third with 10.
Being a team competition, the individual classification added the points obtained by each player. The matches of the first day awarded one point, those of the second day two and those of the third day three. In doubles, the score was shared between the two players. Kia has been a supplier to the RFET and the official vehicle of the Spanish tennis teams since 2018.
