He also didn’t refute suggestions that the Shell Helix Ultra Cup may develop into a four-team tournament in the future, taking the format of the defunct Charity Cup.

“We will see how it develops. Our aim is to stay relevant and to bring a product that the fans want. For now we have a three-year contract and we will see how it goes,” he said.
