Mahin Aftab
“ When you are into PRO CIRCUIT (ATP/ WTA/ ITF FUTURES), you realize that the journey is not as simple. I am playing at a very high level since March 2022. After an injury lay-off of over 2 years, during which, to represent Pakistan in the Billi Jean cup and SAF GAMES, I had to leave my treatment twice to play with painkillers. But if BARD had not come forward with amazing support, I might have faded out already from Tennis. After Allah Almighty, I am extremely thankful to BARD, the financial support of whom has kept me in Spain every passing day my fitness and tennis are becoming equivalent to established WTA players but it will take a few more months before I break into and establish into PRO CIRCUIT to pay back the compliments to BARD.“
