The stars of the ATP will visit the British South Coast for the 2024
Eastbourne International, which is often used as a precursor to the
Wimbledon Championships and will run from June 24-29, 2024.
An ATP 250 event, the Eastbourne International is a joint ATP and WTA event. Both parties opted for this partnership in 2017, and the event will be hosted at Devonshire Park in Eastbourne. It will feature a 28-player singles field and a 16-team doubles event, with competitors having one last chance to prepare for Wimbledon, which kicks off the following week.
