Rumours are spreading about a Masters 1000 event taking place in Saudi Arabia in January 2025.

目前謠傳沙烏地阿拉伯將在2025年一月

擁有自己的大師賽

Angelo Binaghi, president of the Italian Tennis Federation, has fuelled speculation, saying, “I hope that the Masters 1000 they will have in January 2025 willsatisfy their “tennis cravings”.”

義大利網協總裁Angelo Binaghi近期提到此事

It’s worth noting that while the ATP Tour is yet to confirm or deny whether Saudi Arabia will receive a Masters 1000 event, Binaghi was the first to announce the news about Saudi Arabia hosting the ATP Next Gen Finals in 2023.

ATP尚未對此做出確認和否決

但Angelo Binaghi也是當初最先出來說今年的 Next Gen Finals會在沙國辦的人

The immediate question that talk of a Masters 1000 in January raises is how such an event would work with the current tennis calendar.

Typically, players will head to either Australia or New Zealand in the first two weeks of the year to play one of several ATP events as warm ups ahead of the Australian Open in mid-January. If a Masters 1000 event was to occur in Saudi Arabia in January, this would represent additional travel for players, impacting their preparation heading into the year’s first Grand Slam.

但第一個會面對到的問題是

一月這時段大部分選手都在澳洲、紐西蘭備戰澳網

Questions also exist around whether or not this new Masters 1000 event would replace a current tournament, or come in as a 10th Masters-level event on the ATP Tour.

以及是否會取代掉一個大師賽

或是直接增額成第十個大師賽
