ASICS announced a multi-year partnership with Emma Navarro, the American professional tennis player currently ranked World No. 15. As part of the agreement, Navarro will compete wearing ASICS tennis footwear during the 2026 season and beyond.
Navarro will play in the recently launched SOLUTION SPEED™ FF 4 tennis shoes. The model supports speed-focused players through advanced tennis engineering, cushioning, and agility support that align with her on-court style.
During 2024, Navarro delivered a breakout season that lifted her to a career-high ranking inside the top 10. She reached the semifinals at both SW19 and Flushing Meadows, earned her first key title, and recorded wins over several top-ranked opponents, including former world No. 1 players. Her path to the professional tour followed a college tennis career, after which she advanced rapidly through consistent results at major and tour-level events.
Mitsuyuki Tominaga, President and COO of ASICS, expressed pride in welcoming Emma Navarro to the brand’s global athlete roster. He emphasized her current level of performance and pointed to continued support as she builds on her results in the seasons ahead.
Navarro shared her enthusiasm for starting the new tennis season with ASICS, noting that the SOLUTION SPEED™ FF 4 tennis shoes support her style of play and contribute to her confidence on court. She also referenced the importance of sport in her life and aligned herself with ASICS’ belief in the positive connection between movement and the mind.
