Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios and World number one Aryna Sabalenka are all set for action in a unique exhibition tennis contest.

Deemed the Battle of the Sexes, the one-off exhibition match-up brings back a concept that was prominent in the 70s, but with some added twists to make the competition equal between the two players.

It is a modern-day sequel to the historic clash between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs back in 1973. Billie Jean had emerged victorious in the competition.

The Battle of the Sexes has been a controversial affair ever since it was made official.

Nick Kyrgios & Aryna Sabalenka Battle In A Unique Exhibition Match-Up

The Nick Kyrgios vs Aryna Sabalenka: Battle of the Sexes will be a standalone exhibition event between two tennis titans of different genders. The event is promoted by Evolve, the agency that represents both athletes. The competition will have specific rules and regulations, making it a fair contest between Kyrgios and Sabalenka.

Unlike the best-of-five competition between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, the upcoming exhibition tennis match will have a unique scoring system, service restrictions and different court dimensions.

The reason behind making the changes is to make the competition equal between the two participants and also to help make it an entertaining spectacle.
