The MGM Slam brings elite men's professional tennis to the desert, transforming T-Mobile Arena into an intimate tennis venue for one electric night. Eight top players—including Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Casper Ruud, Nick Kyrgios, Joao Fonseca, Gael Monfils, Lorenzo Musetti, and Alexander Bublik—will compete for a $1-million prize pool in what promises to be high-stakes tennis entertainment. This isn't your typical tournament format; it's a specially curated exhibition that pits some of the game's most dynamic personalities and skilled athletes against each other in a single-evening showdown.
T-Mobile Arena's configuration for tennis creates a unique viewing experience, with seating that wraps around the court in a way traditional tennis stadiums don't offer. You'll see the intensity on players' faces, hear the crack of serves echoing through the arena, and feel the tension of tiebreaks from angles impossible at outdoor tournaments. The mix of established stars like Monfils and rising talents like Fonseca makes for compelling matchups, while personalities like Kyrgios add an unpredictable edge to the competition.
