Coca Cola IPTL Tennis League 2014 by Mahesh Bhupathi
The International Premier Tennis League (IPTL) is a tennis championship league that is set to launch in November 2014, and will be held across four cities: Manila, Dubai, Delhi and Singapore. The tournament was the brainchild of Mahesh Bhupathi and is styled on the Indian Premier League.
Four teams consisting of up to ten players will compete in 24 best-of-five round robin matches which will take place across the four cities between November 28 and December 13, consisting of a set each for men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, mixed doubles, and, if required, a legends singles tiebreak to decide the match. Unlike in a standard match of tennis, where the tiebreak would be invoked if the score reached 6–all in a set, it will be invoked if the score reaches 5–all in any set.
