One million dollars at stake just days before Indian Wells? That's the whole point of the "MGM Slam", scheduled for March 1, 2026, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

For its third edition, the exhibition will bring together eight ATP Tour players in an ultra-fast format: matches played as super tie-breaks, similar to Tie Break Tens.

Fritz, Monfils, and Bublik as Headliners

On the participant side, world No. 6 Taylor Fritz will be part of it, accompanied by his compatriot Tommy Paul. Casper Ruud, Gaël Monfils, Nick Kyrgios, Alexander Bublik, Joao Fonseca, and Lorenzo Musetti will complete the lineup.

This year, the "MGM Slam" featured an exhibition between Aryna Sabalenka and Naomi Osaka, while the first edition, then called the "Netflix Slam", pitted Rafael Nadal against Carlos Alcaraz.
