The tournament had been scheduled to be played between 7 November – 11 November 2001 but was cancelled for security reasons.[1] The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) made up for the cancellation by rescheduling the tournament as the ATP World Doubles Challenge Cup and holding it early in the 2002 season.[2]
