ATP confirms World Tour Finals staying in London until 2020
Thursday 25 May 2017 15:29, UK
The ATP World Tour Finals will be hosted in London until 2020, ATP executive chairman and president Chris Kermode has announced.
The week-long season finale for men's tennis has been staged at the O2 Arena in North Greenwich since 2009 and the partnership was due to expire in 2018.
However, despite interest from a number of high-profile cities, the ATP has now committed to London for an additional two years.
The tournament will now be called the Nitto ATP Finals after a new sponsorship deal was agreed with Japan's Nitto Denko Corporation.
"We're delighted to extend our stay in London and to have Nitto come on board as title sponsor over the next four years," Kermode said.
"It's fantastic news to have such an ambitious and innovative company partner with our season-ending showcase in what is unquestionably one of the most exciting times in men's professional tennis in recent memory. We look forward to a successful partnership and to the continued growth of our season finale in London."
