In Saturday’s main event, Women’s World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka will face off against former No. 1 Naomi Osaka. Sabalenka, who has won a combined 23 career titles in singles and doubles, is the two-time reigning Australian Open champion and will defend her 2024 U.S. Open title later this year.

In Sunday’s action, Men’s World No. 1 Jannik Sinner, No. 2-ranked Alexander Zverev, and Americans Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul, ranked 4th and 9th, respectively, will participate in a four-player competition.
“The 2024 ‘Netflix Slam’ at Mandalay Bay was a huge success and one of our most entertaining sporting events of the year,” said Lance Evans, MGM Resorts’ Senior Vice President of Sports and Sponsorships. “We anticipate creating another memorable event experience as tennis fans worldwide will enjoy watching the sport’s best players compete at the highest level in Las Vegas.”
