@YonaMX Fair, but like that's the point of semi-exhos, it kinda depends on the person's PoV, where it's big enough to attract big crowds + sometimes supervised by the ITF or ATP but not giving points (and recorded wins often) makes their distinctions ambiguous IMO.

The points awarded by the ATP do not determine whether an event is an exhibition or not.

Except for a few seasons, the Davis Cup (long an very important event of the season) and, more recently, the OG did not award points, now.
Until 1990, neither did the Masters.

Neither did the World Team Cup in Düsseldorf (end 1970s, early 2010s), before RG, and none of them were exhibitions.

 

@YonaMX Word this a bit differently please, otherwise I am closing this thread as Laver Cup is not an exhibition (false information).

 

Maybe it's not an official exhibition, but it is one de-facto. The deciding-set rule in it aren't even like in the rest of the singles tournaments.
But if it bothers you, change the title to "Which of these two events do you prefer?".

 

Done.

 

at least in one of them we have Sincaraz actually caring because it's a shitload of money lol
