The winner of the Sinner-Tsitsipas challenge will face Novak Djokovic on October 16, Carlos Alcaraz on the other hand will face one of Sasha Zverev or Taylor Fritz. Final scheduled for Oct. 18.

The Six Kings Slam is a very rich tournament: each of the six participants is guaranteed a participation fee of $1.5 million, with the winner taking home another $4.5 million, for a total of $6 million. Since this is an event not organized by the’ATP, no participant will earn valid points for the overall ranking.

The challenges will be played at The Venue, a newly built futuristic facility that can hold up to 8’000 people. The tournament is part of a major Saudi government project aimed at attracting tourists through the’organization of major sports and other events.
