A new era in team tennis begins this summer, with the inaugural ATP Cup tournament taking place in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth from January 3 until January 12. This is The Roar’s full guide to all the players appearing at this year’s tournament.
Replacing the trio of tournaments that used to precede the Australian Open (although the Brisbane International will continue for the women), the ATP Cup sees 24 nations – divided into six groups of four – play Davis Cup-esque round robin fixtures, before progressing to quarter-finals, semi-finals and, ultimately, the finals.
Each fixture is played as a best-of-three. The first match is a singles match between each country’s second-ranked player, the second is a singles match between the first-ranked players and the third is a doubles match.
