| Grand Slams |
The Grand Slams are the four most prestigious competitions in tennis - the Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon and the US Open.
The ITF sanctions and works closely with the four Grand Slams through its presence on the Grand Slam Committee, and supports each event with administrative, officiating and media services.
Four of the ITF’s leading National Associations - Tennis Australia, the French Tennis Federation, the United States Tennis Association and, in the case of Wimbledon, a joint Committee of Management consisting of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club and the Lawn Tennis Association of Great Britain - own and organise these independent cornerstones of the sport. In 1989, the Grand Slams joined forces for the first time to form the Grand Slam Committee which, among other responsibilities, administers the Grand Slam rules.
The four Grand Slams, plus the Japan Open, the Italian Championships and the International Championships of Spain are all Official Championships of the ITF.
In this section you can find information on each of the four Grand Slams, with daily reports from the last few years. Daily Reports will in future appear in both the main News section and on the relevant Grand Slam page in this section.
