ATP announces major changes planned for 2028. ATP Chairman Andrea Gaudenzi has outlined a series of proposed changes to the men's tour. Here’s what could change: - $350M in player compensation: Projected annual total by 2028, excluding Grand Slam prize money. - Bigger bonus pool: Increasing from $21.5M to $50M. - More player support: $25M in year-end support for players ranked in the Top 250, plus around $30M annually for pensions covering 300 players. - Ranking points overhaul: More weight for results at the biggest events, removing incentives to chase extra tournaments after disappointing results. - Calendar changes: Dedicated weeks for ATP 250s, 500s and Masters 1000s, with plans to reduce the number of 250 events. The proposed structure includes 10 weeks of 250s, eight weeks of 500s and 10 Masters 1000s. - Saudi Arabia Masters 1000: A 10th event at this level will join the tour in 2028. - Doubles changes: The ATP is reviewing doubles formats and draws. Any prize money reallocated would go toward singles qualifying and early-round payouts. The goal is to reward results at the biggest events, improve player financial security and ease the pressure to play so many tournaments. Source: atptour.com/en/news/an-open-…
