Furthermore, what exactly is the event?

Consequently, those participating will not generate any ranking points as it&#8217;s a non-ATP sanctioned event.<\/p>\n<p>Just for turning up, the six participants will earn over a seven-figure sum. As mentioned, the overall winner will receive a cheque that dwarfs the amount generated from landing a standard Grand Slam title.<\/p>\n<h2>Who Will Play At The Six Kings Slam?<\/h2>\n<p>With the Six Kings Slam prize money on offer extremely lucrative, those vying for the funds are arguably the best six players on the circuit right now.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside Rafael Nadal &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/novak-djokovic-honest-assessment-2024-season-shanghai-masters-sinner\/\">Novak Djokovic<\/a>, Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Daniil Medvedev and Holger Rune will play. Nadal will face the winner of Rune vs Alcaraz with Djokovic facing the winner of Sinner vs Medvedev in the semis.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Six Kings Slam! \u2694\ufe0f<\/p>\n<p>A single-elimination tournament comprising six ATP tennis stars&#8230; LIVE on Sky Sports Tennis \ud83c\udfbe\ud83e\udd29 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6DZGsNG1Jz\">pic.twitter.com\/6DZGsNG1Jz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Sky Sports Tennis (@SkySportsTennis) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SkySportsTennis\/status\/1846220694104711451?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 15, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Where And When Is The Six Kings Slam?<\/h2>\n<p>The three-day Six Kings Slam event starts on the evening of October 16 and will run through until October 19.
