He said this in relation to the upcoming ATP Finals event and the ATP Cup, which will be hosted before the Australian Open in 2021. As we are nearing the end of the 2020 calendar, no one really knows what the schedule is with regards to the upcoming season.
Tennis Australia’s CEO Craig Tiley painted a gloomy picture for the tournament in 2021, and the subsequent years as well. “I’m of the view that these current adjustments will last longer than we think,” he said.
“We are already talking about different scenarios for 2022, because we don’t think we will be repeating 2020 until at least 2023 or 2024,” Tiley further added.
