The ‘Battle of the Sexes’ exhibition match between Aryna Sabalenka and Nick Kyrgios will air live on BBC One on December 28.
World number one and four-time Grand Slam singles champion Sabalenka will face former Wimbledon runner-up Kyrgios in Dubai.
Belarusian Sabalenka has been the dominant player on the WTA Tour for the past two years, winning two Australian Open and two US Open titles.
Australian Kyrgios, 30, reached the Wimbledon final in 2022, but only played five matches in 2025 after a long layoff due to a wrist injury.
The match will be played in three sets, with a decisive 10-point tie-break if necessary.
