Some of the world’s top male tennis players will be in action at the Six Kings Slam, a new exhibition event in Saudi Arabia. The sextet is headlined by Rafael Nadal, playing one of his final tournaments as he prepares to bow out of the sport after the Davis Cup finals on home soil at the end of November.

Nadal will skip the quarter-final round at the Six Kings Slam and battle against Carlos Alcaraz or Holger Rune in the semi-final. The 22-time Major champion will end his career at the Davis Cup Finals in Malaga between November 19-24, competing in the national jersey two decades after debuting.

Jannik Sinner enjoyed yet another success of 2024, the Shanghai Masters 1000, for a few days. It is already time to return to the court. The world number one is expected at the Six Kings

Each of the six players is guaranteed a minimum prize of $1.5 million (£1.12m). The Six Kings Slam champion, meanwhile, will clinch the largest prize in tennis history with $6,000,000 (£4,500,000) up for grabs. That’s almost double the amount of what a Grand Slam singles winner earns.
