Airdate: AO Rally for Relief

Nine will screen the Australian Open Rally for Relief event next Wednesday night, to aid bushfire relief.

“The world’s top players, boasting many Grand Slam titles between them, have committed to AO Rally for Relief and we look forward to announcing the line-up in the coming days. The players are keen to be involved – we’ve had a tremendous response from them and they are keen to help,” Tennis Australia CEO and Australian Open Tournament Director Craig Tiley said.

“AO Rally for Relief promises to be an incredible night of tennis and entertainment, as well as a wonderful opportunity to bring together the best of our sport for this important cause.”

A Current Affair will not screen.
