Sydney, Brisbane to host ATP Cup

Sydney, January 7: Sydney and Brisbane were confirmed as hosts of the ATP Cup event beginning in 2020.

From next year, the tournament will kick-start the ATP World Tour season, with teams from 24 countries to feature over 10 days in six groups of four.

A third capital city is yet to be confirmed alongside Brisbane and Sydney, the latter named as the host for the finals.
