The 2024 United Cup tennis tournament in Australia is scheduled to run from December 29 to January 7 and the tournament has announced a record prize fund of $15 million.
This is considered part of the reason why this tournament brings together many top players from both the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and the Association of Tennis Professionals (WTA).
Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Iga Swiatek, Jessica Pegula all attach importance to the importance of the 2024 United Cup, before entering the 2024 Australian Open taking place from January 14 to January 28.
The United Cup is considered a warm-up tournament for players before entering the new season. This is a mixed team event, and players are determined to compete to bring the highest results for the national team.
In this year's tournament, 18 teams are divided into 6 groups, selecting 6 teams to compete in 3 knockout matches. In the knockout round, 3 winning teams will win tickets to the semi-finals, 3 losing teams will compete in a round-robin to compete for the remaining semi-final ticket.
With Djokovic's presence, the Serbian team is considered a strong candidate for the championship. Nole and his teammates are in Group E with China and the Czech Republic.
Rafael Nadal will not be playing in the United Cup, but he will participate in the ATP 250 Brisbane International in Australia from December 31 to January 7 before entering the Australian Open.
Nadal has been at his tennis academy in Kuwait since December 15, where he has been training with Arthur Fils, the 19-year-old Frenchman who just reached the final of the Next Gen ATP Finals.
Olly commented: "Nadal always puts in 100% effort in training and waits for the day of his return. He will be in Australia in two weeks."
