The Re-Live of the 2025 Mouratoglou Charity Gala!
The 11th edition of the Mouratoglou Charity Gala took place on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at the Mouratoglou Academy & Resort near Nice.
This iconic event once again brought together leading figures from the worlds of sports, entertainment, and philanthropy — all united in their support of the next generation of champions.
Under a beautiful summer sky, guests walked the signature “Gold” carpet before gathering for a gala dinner around the Academy’s iconic racket-shaped pool, in an atmosphere that was both elegant and celebratory. The evening continued late into the night with a vibrant after-party.
Among the many high-profile attendees were the legendary Ronaldo (R9), Clarisse Agbegnenou, Cyril Benzaquen, Camille Lacourt, Kevin Mayer, Shy’m, Jérémy Frérot, Philippe Caverivière, Diane Leyre, Alphonse Aréola, Michou, Nico Capone, Adil Rami, and many more — all lending their presence and support to a cause close to their hearts.
One of the night’s highlights was a spirited live auction, where Stefanos Tsitsipas and Alphonse Aréola went head-to-head over a 1988 World Cup jersey signed by Ronaldo himself — a fun and symbolic moment that thrilled the crowd.
In a particularly moving part of the evening, Stefanos Tsitsipas was honored with the 2025 Exceptional Ambassador Award, recognizing his ongoing commitment to the Foundation and his inspiring journey from promising junior to global tennis star.
We also had the pleasure of welcoming two incredible singers who lit up the Gala with their voices: Gia Ré and Johnny Manuel.
Gia Ré is a British singer and actress, known for her role in Doctor Who and for hit singles such as Shine and Coulda Been Love. Her voice is truly exceptional, and it was an honor to hear her perform.

Johnny Manuel is an American singer, a semi-finalist on America’s Got Talent (2017), and a finalist on Season 9 of The Voice Australia. Like Gia Ré, he brought remarkable talent and presence to the evening — we couldn’t have dreamed of better artists to share the night with us.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of all involved, the gala raised nearly €300,000 for the Champ’seed Foundation.
Since its inception 11 years ago, the Champ’seed Foundation has raised over €5 million and helped launch the careers of numerous young talents who are now making their mark on the international tennis scene — including Stefanos Tsitsipas, Coco Gauff, and Holger Rune.
This year’s funds will once again go toward supporting the next wave of rising stars, such as Thijs Boogaard, Victoria Barros, Clervie and Carel Ngounoue, Elizaveta Anikina, and Nikita Berdin.
