Zheng Qinwen Joins Iga Swiatek as Lancôme Brand Ambassador

Zheng Qinwen, the rising star of Chinese tennis, has added another feather to her cap by becoming a Lancôme Brand Ambassador, joining world No. 1 Iga Swiatek in representing the prestigious French luxury brand.

The 21-year-old Zheng, known as “Queenwen,” has been making waves on the tennis circuit, reaching the Australian Open final earlier this year and achieving a career-high ranking of No. 7. Her impressive performance earned her the WTA’s Most Improved Player of 2023 award.

Zheng’s Lancôme deal comes just a day after Swiatek, the reigning Stuttgart champion, announced her own partnership with the brand. The two players will now represent Lancôme’s fragrance and cosmetics lines.

Zheng’s endorsement portfolio already includes major brands such as Nike, Wilson, and Gatorade. She has also graced the covers of magazines like GQ China.

In a recent interview with WTA Insider, Zheng spoke about her journey of self-discovery and the role tennis plays in shaping her identity. “I always try to find who I am,” she said. “I don’t want to think I am the best in the world. Obviously, that is not the right mentality. But I don’t want to be too low, that I’m not good enough. That’s not the right way to think. I’m trying to not be disturbed by what others are saying about me, to know who I really am.”

Zheng’s next challenge will be in Stuttgart, where she is seeded fifth and will face either Marta Kostyuk or Laura Siegemund in the second round.

Iga Swiatek Makes History as Lancôme’s First Polish and Female Athlete Ambassador

Iga Swiatek, the world’s top-ranked female tennis player, has made history by becoming the first Polish woman and the first female athlete to be named a brand ambassador for Lancôme cosmetics. The partnership marks a significant milestone for both Swiatek and the beauty industry.

Swiatek’s association with Lancôme began when she received Idôle perfume as a gift in her teenage years. The scent left a lasting impression on her, and she has since developed a deep appreciation for the brand. In her social media announcement, Swiatek expressed her excitement about the collaboration, stating that it allows her to embrace her femininity, something she rarely has the opportunity to do as a tennis player.

Beyond her role as a brand ambassador, Swiatek will also collaborate with Lancôme on an initiative in Poland aimed at empowering women in the job market. The company’s official statement praised Swiatek as a reflection of Lancôme’s expertise in beauty and an inspiration for the younger generation.

Swiatek’s partnership with Lancôme is a testament to her growing influence both on and off the court. In December 2023, she was named the world’s highest-earning female athlete by Forbes, with an estimated income of $23.9 million. Her sponsorship portfolio continues to expand, with deals with companies such as Visa, Porsche, On apparel, Rolex, LEGO, and PZU.

The partnership between Swiatek and Lancôme is a win-win situation for both parties. Swiatek gains access to a global platform to promote her brand and inspire others, while Lancôme benefits from her star power and influence among a wide audience.
