Diriyah Tennis Cup starts off with 4 highly-anticipated quarterfinal matches

In the quarterfinals, we can expect 4 interesting matchups as 7 players from TOP 25 take part in the challenge. The day will start with a match between Fabio Fognini and John Isner. This match will be later followed by Gael Monfils and Stan Wawrinka. The evening session will be kicked-off with a match between Daniil Medvedev and Jan-Lennard Struff. And closing the quarterfinal matches will be David Goffin and Lucas Pouille.

However, this tournament is a bit different in terms of rules for the players who lose. They do not leave the tournament but they continue in so-called 'consolation bracket'. Therefore, we will see 3 more interesting matches in Saudi Arabia.

Prince Abdulaziz opened the venue with the service and later he said: "I am personally so excited to welcome an amazing line-up of some of the very best tennis players on the planet to Saudi Arabia. We’re now set to make more history over the coming days. Hosting top tier international tennis in Saudi Arabia for the very first time is another momentous sporting occasion for Saudi Arabia. The Diriyah Tennis Cup can inspire new players and new fans in Saudi – male, female, old or young."
