The Six Kings Slam could be in danger.

Serious problems may surround the fashion exhibition and an event featuring names like Carlos Alcaraz or Novak Djokovic. We are talking about the Six Kings Slam, which will take place in two weeks (starting from October 22) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The problem, of course, is that this event seems to be at the epicenter of new military conflicts in the Middle East... and it has received devastating news in recent hours, with events that could alter the course of the tournament.

Throughout this morning, three Saudi civilians have died due to several attacks at Riyadh airport, attacks claimed by the Houthi rebels from Yemen, who have been waging a brutal war near the Gulf for some time. Both attacks targeted two aircraft, one of which belonged to the Saudia airline, whose owner is none other than Saudi Arabia itself. These two attacks jeopardize the security of the Arab nation, which has plans to host many sporting events in the coming months.

Is the Six Kings Slam in danger?

The event is one of the crowning jewels of the Saudi kingdom, which prides itself on bringing together the best rackets in the world for a massive prize. It is also a precursor to its big entry into the world of tennis, with the Qiddiya Masters 1000 in 2028 as the cornerstone. Although the PIF, the wealthy investment fund of this country, has controlled its investments in recent months, the plan to break into the world of tennis is still moving forward.

However, this terrorist attack could have fatal consequences for a Six Kings Slam that will reassess the situation in the coming hours. Several events in the Middle East have been canceled in recent months due to military conflicts, such as some Formula 1 races, for example. We will see if tennis is the next affected: we are just a couple of weeks away from this tournament and the bombs are still falling on Riyadh.
