Tennis Australia also announced a “Rally for Relief” exhibition match at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on Jan. 15 ahead of the Australian Open, with “the world’s top players” taking part. His Australian teammate at the inaugural ATP Cup, Alex de Minaur, went one better. Tournament director Tom Larner announced that each ace served at the 10-day event would deliver A$100 to bushfire relief. “During the Australian Open, we also plan to honor and recognize the incredible work of our firefighters, emergency services workers and volunteers who serve our communities so tirelessly,” he said. “Hey Guys, for every six I hit in this year’s Big Bash League, I will donate A$250 towards the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal,” Lynn tweeted.
