Challenge Your Hero - Women’s Tennis Virtual Contest

WTA - Challenge Your HeroSeptember 22, 2008 - Fans of women’s tennis who dream of hitting the court to face off against the top players can now pit their own racket skills against top seeds such as Maria Sharapova and Jelena Jankovic. The virtual match, part of a user-generated content (UGC) contest launched by the Sony Ericsson Woman’s Tennis Association Tour, launched last week.

Would-be contenders can create an account at www.ChallengeYourHero.com, choose one of four current woman tennis stars—Sharapova, Jankovic, Ana Ivanovic and Dinara Sarafina—and upload footage of their own courtside performance.

Fans can then mix videos of themselves matching up to the forehands, backhands, volleys and serves of some of the greatest women’s tennis players in the world.

Creators of the best videos, as determined by the Tour, will be eligible for a chance to win the grand prize – a trip for two to the year-end Sony Ericsson Championships in Doha, Qatar.

From what we’ve seen so far on the site, there are no Spielberg’s contributing content yet - so the field looks wide open for a grand prize winner. What are you waiting for?
