Hey there, fellow tennis enthusiasts It’s your girl Mia Johnson-Carter here, living the dream in Miami. Today, I’m super excited to share some awesome news with you all about an incredible tennis event that’s got everyone buzzing.
The Six Kings Slam, an exhibition tournament set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is making waves in the tennis world. This exclusive event will feature six of the best men’s tennis players: Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, Daniil Medvedev, and Holger Rune. The lineup is nothing short of phenomenal!
What’s even more mind-boggling is the prize pool. The participants will each receive a staggering $1.5 million just for showing up, with the winner taking home a whopping $6 million. That’s some serious dough, folks!
However, not everyone is thrilled about this new addition to the tennis calendar. Andy Murray recently spoke out on social media, calling it “just not a film” and suggesting it won’t interest anyone. Corentin Moutet also chimed in with some humor, noting that the promotional trailer for the event cost more than his prize money this year—$587,500!
Despite the mixed reactions, the tournament promises to be an exciting spectacle. It will take place in the week following the Shanghai Rolex Masters and just before the first indoor events of the end of the season in Europe. The draw has been revealed, ensuring that fans will get to see top-level matches between tennis legends and rising stars.
