This followed Abdo's May 25 announcement of his resignation from the NRL to lead Tennis Australia, replacing Craig Tiley, who declared in February his plan to step down this year to become head of the US Tennis Association. Abdo will continue his rugby league duties until July 15, with an expectation to finalize a new broadcast deal for the competition, and is set to officially start with Tennis Australia on August 3.
