What is the 6 Kings Slam?
The 6 Kings Slam will be a tennis exhibition happening in mid-October that will feature six global tennis titans going head-to-head in the heart of Riyadh. Unlike regular tournaments on the men’s ATP Tour, the event will not count towards player rankings, allowing fans to enjoy the thrilling matches without the pressure of points.
Where’s it happening?
The massive tennis face-off will be happening at Riyadh Season’s newest zone, The Venue. The zone, which covers an area of around 10,000 square meters, was built in 50 days to accommodate 8,000 people. It is also equipped with the latest audiovisual technology, flexible staging design, and superior sound quality – poised to become the premier choice for hosting a variety of global and exclusive events.
Participating players
Tennis superstars Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, as well as Spanish sensation Carlos Alcaraz, are set to grace the courts in Riyadh. Russian powerhouse Daniil Medvedev, Holger Rune, the highest-ranking Danish player in history, and Jannik Sinner, the young Italian who recently claimed his first Grand Slam title at the 2024 Australian Open, will also be competing.
