ATP Finals to Remain in Italy Until 2030, Location Under Evaluation
The ATP Finals, the season-ending tournament for the top eight players on the men’s tennis tour, will continue to be held in Italy through 2030, ATP chairman Andrea Gaudenzi announced on Sunday. However, the exact location of the tournament beyond 2025 is still under evaluation.
The current contract with Turin, which has hosted the event since 2021, expires next year. Gaudenzi confirmed that the tournament will remain in Italy for another five years, but did not specify whether it would stay in Turin or move to Milan.
Milan is constructing a new arena for ice hockey at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics, which could potentially host the ATP Finals. The arena is expected to have a capacity of over 16,000 for tennis, providing 4,000 more seats than the Inalpi arena in Turin.
“The location options beyond 2025 are under evaluation, with further updates to be provided in due course,” the ATP said in a statement.
The ATP Finals were previously held in London for 12 years before moving to Turin. The tournament has been a success in Italy, with strong attendance and positive feedback from players and fans.
The decision to keep the ATP Finals in Italy is a testament to the country’s strong tennis tradition and its commitment to hosting major sporting events. Italy has produced numerous top tennis players over the years, including Jannik Sinner, who won the ATP Finals this year.
The ATP Finals are one of the most prestigious events on the tennis calendar, and their continued presence in Italy is a major boost for the sport in the country. The tournament provides a platform for Italian players to compete against the world’s best and inspire future generations of tennis enthusiasts.
