Tennis Australia chief executive Craig Tiley backs the United Cup to become 'the pre-eminent global teams' event' in tennis, amid calls for changes to be made to the competition following its debut.
Australian veteran John Millman is among those in the sport who believe the event needs to undergo change, with Tiley conceding there would be "tweaks" made to future editions."My prediction? It will be the pre-eminent global teams' event," he told ABC Sport.
"I think that event is here to stay. It got over 190,000 people come through the gate and millions watched around the world, [in] 183 countries."Millman said the United Cup's schedule was one of its features that needed to be reviewed. The United Cup replaced the male-only ATP Cup, which was contested across four Australian cities between 2020 and 2022.
