ATP x waterdrop®
Bottle Design Contest

Welcome to the official ATP x waterdrop® Bottle Design Contest!

For the 2026 tennis season, waterdrop® and ATP are joining forces once again to create a bottle that celebrates their commitment to sustainable hydration. This year, we are launching a special initiative: we’re inviting each one of you – our community – to become part of our movement and to design the Official ATP Tour All-Purpose Thermo Bottle. Let’s create a bottle that embodies our shared values of innovation, performance, and commitment to a sustainable hydration. The winning design will not only be featured by athletes and showcased across various tournaments throughout the season, but – as an integral part of our partnership – will also be provided to and featured by ATP players, staff, and volunteers, and displayed at waterdrop® sponsored tournaments.

This is your opportunity to let your creativity flow and help shape the future of hydration in tennis.
Join us now for the ATP x waterdrop® Bottle Design Contest!

The contest is open to individuals who are over 18 years of age.

Once submitted, designs will be approved by waterdrop® & visible for public voting on the voting gallery. The final winner will be chosen based on a combination of public votes and expert evaluation, ensuring the most outstanding design claims the crown!

Public Voting & Jury Judgement

The winning design will be chosen through a combination of public voting and expert evaluation. Here is how it works:

Once your design is submitted and approved, it will be featured in the voting gallery, where everyone can vote once per day for each design. The public voting phase runs from 10th March (10:01 CEST) to 11th May (23:59 CEST) – and every vote matters!

The more votes a design receives, the stronger its impact on the final score. That means rallying your supporters, sharing your entry, and spreading the word can make a real difference. Top voted designs will earn the biggest advantage – so check out the submitted designs and vote for your favourite – remember, you can vote one time for one design per day. Make it count!

In addition to public voting, a jury of design experts and representatives from ATP and waterdrop® will evaluate all eligible designs based on key judging criteria. You can find the details in the section above on “Consideration of Brand Fit & Judging Criteria.”
