Supported by tennis icons like Leander Paes, Sania Mirza, and Mahesh Bhupathi, this edition promises an exciting week of tennis, featuring TPL\u2019s innovative and fast-paced format as franchises compete for glory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Each team will compete in five league matches from December 9-13, with the top four teams advancing to the semi-finals and final on December 14. TPL\u2019s distinctive format includes four rounds per match - Women\u2019s Singles, Mixed Doubles, Men\u2019s Singles, and Men\u2019s Doubles - each worth 25 points, totalling 100 points per match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Season 7 features an outstanding blend of international stars ranked in the top 50 worldwide, alongside India\u2019s top talent, with each franchise showcasing a marquee player set to lead their campaign.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
SG Pipers will be led by India\u2019s tennis legend and two-time Grand Slam winner Rohan Bopanna. He will be joined by India\u2019s No.2 women\u2019s singles player, Shrivalli Bhamidipaty and Ramkumar Ramnathan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rajasthan Rangers will depend on the powerful World No. 26, Luciano Darderi from Italy, along with Russia\u2019s Anastasia Gasanova and Dhakshineswar Suresh. Gurgaon Grand Slammers will rely on Britain\u2019s Daniel Evans, who reached a career-high ranking of No. 21 in 2023. He will team up with India\u2019s top female singles player, Sahaja Yamalapalli, and Sriram Balaji. Gujarat Panthers will be led by France\u2019s World No. 42, Alexandre Muller, supported by Italy\u2019s Nuria Brancaccio and India\u2019s Anirudh Chandrasekhar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Defending champions Hyderabad Strikers aim to win the trophy again, led by Spain\u2019s Pedro Martinez, who is currently ranked No. 93. He will be joined by fellow Spaniard Carole Monnet from France, and Vishnu Vardhan from India, who is returning from last season as an experienced doubles veteran.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bosnia\u2019s former World No. 23 Damir Dzhumhur headlines the Yash Mumbai Eagles team, joining Burundi\u2019s Sada Nahimana and Indian star Niki Poonacha. GS Delhi Aces will feature Britain\u2019s No. 4 ranked player Billy Harris, 20-year-old Belgian Sofia Costoulas, and Indian left-hander Jeevan Nedunchezchiyan. Chennai Smashers rely on talented Czech Dalibor Svrcina, Romania\u2019s Irina Bara, and India\u2019s doubles expert Rithvik Bollipalli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
As the teams finalise their strategies, refine combinations, and build momentum, Season 7 is becoming the most exciting edition yet. The league will be available for live streaming on JioStar and broadcast on Sony Sports, making it the only sports league in the country accessible on both platforms.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
