NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Dave Cantin Group (DCG), a leading advisor to retail automotive groups and their owners, today announced its sponsorship of professional tennis player Ethan Quinn. The partnership expands DCG’s sports ambassador program into tennis following its January announcement of PGA Tour professional Quade Cummins as the company’s first athlete ambassador.

Quinn, 21, is one of American tennis’s new, young stars. A native of Fresno, California, and a standout at the University of Georgia, he captured the 2023 NCAA Division I Men’s Singles Championship before turning professional later that year. Quinn now plays out of Florida, where DCG will be collaborating with Quinn on a series of private experiences for dealership owners.

“From California, where he was born, to Georgia, where he became a national champion, to Florida, where he became a top 100 player in the world, Ethan’s journey reflects the grit and competitive spirit that DCG employs every day in our business,” Dave Cantin Group CEO, Dave Cantin, said. “We are honored to support him as he builds his career on the global stage and are committed to supporting athletes whose journeys mirror the drive, ambition and local pride shared by automotive dealers across the country.”

“Partnering with DCG is an exciting opportunity,” Quinn said. “Their commitment to excellence and to community mirrors the values I grew up with, and I’m proud to represent them as I continue my career on the ATP Tour.”
