ARTA (Australian Real Tennis Association) is pleased to announce that record prize money will be on offer when the 2027 season kicks off in Australia in January.

We are thrilled that the new Sydney Real Tennis Club will host its first Australian Open Singles & Doubles from 5 to 14 January (with official practice 3rd and 4th Jan). The minimum prize pool will be A$70,000, and we are hopeful that we will be able to increase this pool. (all Donations gratefully accepted)

This already lifts the Australian Open pool to its equal highest ever level.

Sydney will also offer a handicap doubles event from 11 to 14 January for club players who wish to enjoy watching the Open and also play some tennis on this wonderful court.
