ATP Cup brings the top men’s tennis stars to Sydney and Brisbane in 2020

Djokovic, Zverev, Monfils, Tsitsipas, Kyrgios, Thiem, Dimitrov and more.

The world’s best tennis stars on the ATP circuit will arrive Down Under for the ATP Cup in just three weeks.

Starting Friday 3 January in Brisbane, Sydney and Perth, 26 of the world top 30 men’s players will compete in the tournament – including nine of the top ten.

The Cup will kick off the 2020 ATP season, pitting the top 24 nations in the world against each other.

How does the ATP Cup work?

The ATP Cup is the newest addition to the Australian tennis calendar so we wanted to give you a little run down of what you can expect.

The top 24 ranked men’s nations will compete in the tournament, based on each country’s top-ranked singles player. They will be split into six groups of four teams each, with two groups based in each city –Brisbane, Sydney and Perth – to compete in a round-robin style tournament. Each team will play three ties in the group stage.

From here the top team in each group, alongside the top two second-place finishers (for a total of eight teams), will head to Sydney for the finals – with knockout games to determine the ATP Cup champions and share in US$15 million in prizemoney. An undefeated singles player could also earn 750 ATP Rankings points and an undefeated doubles player could earn 250 points.
