The World Tennis League (WTL) has announced the format, schedule, and ticketing details for its first edition in India. The tournament will take place at the SM Krishna Tennis Stadium in Bengaluru from December 17-20.
World Tennis League 2025: Format
The World Tennis League 2025 will be played in a quick and competitive four-set format that includes Men’s Singles, Women’s Singles and two Doubles sets. The captain who wins the pre-match toss will decide the doubles combinations, adding a bit of strategy before play even begins. Unlike traditional tournaments, the tie will be won by the team that collects the most games overall, which means every game, and every point carries weight.
All teams will face each other once in the league stage, and the top two will progress to the final. Two ties will take place each day, offering fans four days of non-stop tennis action. Matches will follow the traditional scoring with a Golden Point at Deuce and a tie-break at 6-6. If the trailing team wins the fourth set, play moves into Overtime, and if the scores draw level, a Super Shootout will determine the winner, ensuring every match has a dramatic finish.

Phase 1 tickets are now available on BookMyShow, the league’s official ticketing partner, and can be purchased through the BookMyShow app or website.
