Tennis calendar 2026. What is the next tournament?
The 2026 calendar once again kicks off in Oceania, with the United Cup in Perth and Sydney. Thus begins the outdoor hard-court season, which will culminate in the first major tournament of the season, the Australian Open (18th January–1st February).
The following two weeks see a brief move to indoor hard courts with tournaments in Montpellier, Rotterdam and Dallas.
Once this short, two-week indoor tour is over, the South American clay-court tour and a series of hard-court tournaments will begin. There are ATP 500 events in Brazil and Mexico, as well as tournaments in the Middle East.
As is the case every year, the two great American Masters 1000 tournaments, Indian Wells and Miami, will be held shortly thereafter, which means there will be a Grand Slam atmosphere for the next four weeks. Later, the European clay tour will provide a total of three Masters 1000 events (Monte Carlo, Madrid and Rome), which will bring us to the second Grand Slam event of the season, the French Open (24th May–7th June).
It’s worth noting that the Munich ATP tournament continues as a category 500 tournament after last year, so the best players will use this tournament, along with the Barcelona Open, to prepare and ensure they reach Paris in top form.
Immediately after the French Open, the grass tour takes centre stage, ahead of the oldest and most prestigious of tournaments: Wimbledon (29th June–12th July). However, this main event will be preceded by classic tournaments, such as Queen’s and Halle, as well as the Mallorca ATP.
During the summer season, the North American tour will mark the end of the warmer months with the last of the four major tournaments: the US Open (31st August–13th September). Prior to this Grand Slam, the two Masters 1000 tournaments of the US Open Series will be played in Montreal (Canada) and Cincinnati (US), both of which will continue as 12-day tournaments in 2026.
The 2026 calendar once again sees the return of established tournaments in Asian countries such as China and Japan, with four tournaments featured (Chengdu, Hangzhou, Beijing and Tokyo) before Shanghai, which is the penultimate Masters of the year.
The final Masters 1000 tournament of the 2026 season takes place in Paris in the first week of November.
As in previous years, the indoor tour of Europe will see the final events of the season. The 2026 season will end in Turin with the ATP Finals (15th–22nd November).
Full ATP men’s tennis schedule 2026
The first tournament of the year is the United Cup, an exciting example of team play that is held in Perth and Sydney (2nd–11th January), with 18 teams looking to succeed the United States as champions in the fourth edition of this tournament that is now a regular feature on the tour.
As regards individual events, the first major event is the Australian Open (18th January–1st February). After that, there’s a short hard-court tour featuring events in Qatar, Mexico and Dubai in February, preceded by the South American clay tour and some tournaments in Europe and the United States, such as Montpellier, Rotterdam, Dallas and Delray Beach.
March features the ‘Sunshine Double’, with the first two Masters 1000 tournaments of the year: Indian Wells (4th–15th March) and Miami (18th–29th March). April will see the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 (5th–12th) as the main attraction, while May will be dominated by the Mutua Madrid Open (22nd April–3rd May) and Rome (6th–17th May) in the run-up to the French Open (24th May–7th June). The ATP 500 events in Halle and London will continue to be the most significant tournaments on grass before the arrival of Wimbledon (29th June–12th July).
Tennis clay court calendar 2026
As is the case every year, the clay court season will go through different phases and visit different continents. It all starts in the second month of the year with the ATP 250 in Buenos Aires (9th February), which will be followed by the ATP 500 in Rio de Janeiro (16th February) and then the ATP 250 in Santiago (23rd February). However, it’s not until the Mediterranean tour in April and May, with the Masters 1000 events in Monte Carlo, Madrid and Rome, that this phase builds towards its peak—the eagerly awaited French Open.
The second phase of this part of the calendar arrives in July, just after the grass-court adventure is over. This intense month on the clay of northern Europe features ATP 250 tournaments. The first week features Båstad, Gstaad and Umag (13th July), before giving way to Kitzbühel and Estoril (20th July).
ATP grass tournament schedule
The grass tour is, as usual, the shortest of all the phases. Despite this, it’s one of the most attractive phases, as it’s a surface on which grass-court specialists often spring surprises on players who are less accustomed to manoeuvres such as the volley or the slice.
It begins, as in recent years, with the ATP 250s of ‘s-Hertogenbosch and Stuttgart (8th June), and the prestigious ATP 500s of Halle and Queen’s (15th June), ending with the ATP 250s of Mallorca and Eastbourne (21st/22nd June), which take place the week before Wimbledon.
ATP hard court calendar
The largest section of the tennis calendar also spans most of the year, with tournaments hosted in different stages of the season.
At the beginning of the year, there are the tournaments in Oceania, where the Australian Open is the main attraction. After that, the Netherlands, the United States, the Middle East and Mexico become the tennis focus, with the California and Florida tournaments being two of the most prestigious Masters 1000 tournaments of the season.
After the grass tour, and coinciding with the Northern European clay tour, there are the American tournaments prior to the US Open. The first of these will be Washington (27th July), after which the Montreal Masters 1000 (2nd August) takes place. Directly after that, the Cincinnati Masters 1000 (13th August) starts, before ultimately giving way to the Winston Salem ATP 250 (23rd August).
The US Open (31st August–13th September) will be the last Grand Slam of 2026. After the big tournament in New York, the tour will travel to Asia, where tournaments in Japan and China are a must for the top-ranked players, culminating in the Shanghai Masters (7th October).
ATP calendar: indoor tournaments
The season closes, as it does every year, with the indoor European tournaments, such as the Laver Cup, the Davis Cup and the ATP 500 tournaments in Basel and Vienna (26th October), which precede the final Masters 1000 of this season, which will take place in Paris (2nd November).
After Paris, the tour moves to two ATP 250 tournaments, in Sweden and one venue to be decided (8th November), ahead of the two big season-ending tournaments, the Davis Cup Finals and the ATP Finals, which will both be held in Italy in 2026.

Complete WTA calendar 2026
As is customary for the calendar, and as happens in the men’s circuit, the WTA will begin its journey in Oceania with the United Cup. This tournament will serve as preparation for the first major of the year, which will start in mid-January.
The season will be full of tournaments and, after long months of negotiations with various event organisers, the WTA circuit once again has a very busy season, featuring different tournaments on different surfaces.
WTA calendar – upcoming tennis tournaments 2026
The season kicks off with various WTA 250 and 500 tournaments in Australia and New Zealand, before reaching the Australian Open (18th January–1st February). February and March will be similar to previous years, with the hard courts of Doha and Dubai hosting the first WTA 1000 tournaments of the season and serving as a warm-up for Indian Wells and Miami.
The clay-court season gets underway on the green clay of the WTA 500 in Charleston (30th March–5th April), which, along with tournaments such as Stuttgart, Bogotá and Rouen, serves as preparation for the two major European WTA 1000s, Madrid (21st April) and Rome (5th May). This will also act as the players’ main prelude to the French Open (24th May–7th June).
The grass of Northern Europe takes centre stage in June and the first half of July. The Grass-Court Swing starts in London (WTA 500) at the Queen’s Club and in ‘s-Hertogenbosch and continues in Nottingham and Berlin. Alongside Bad Homburg, the aforementioned tournaments in the British and German capitals, will form the three main WTA 500 tournaments that prepare the top seeds for Wimbledon (29th June–12th July), the third Grand Slam.
The summer period coincides with the men’s circuit moving to North America for the US Open series of tournaments, including the WTA 1000 events in Toronto and Cincinnati, which serve as preparation for the US Open.
The WTA tournament in Guadalajara, one of the most important events in recent years, precedes the Asian Swing. Korea, Japan and China take centre stage in October with tournaments in Seoul, Beijing, Wuhan, Osaka, Tokyo, Ningbo, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Jiujiang.
The season will, as always, culminate in November with the WTA Finals.

This season will see more tournaments and increased levels of competition. Legends will be fighting for victories, while young pretenders will have the chance to rise to the top. Records and historic milestones are at stake in the individual and team competitions, such as the Davis Cup.
2025 saw the retirement of Simona Halep and Petra Kvitova, who both had two Grand Slam titles to their name, as well as having won 24 and 31 titles on the WTA tour respectively. Amongst the other women to retire were Caroline Garcia and Eugenie Bouchard, who both held top-five positions in the rankings during their careers.
In the men’s game, Richard Gasquet called time on his playing career at the age of 39. The Frenchman achieved a career-high seventh place in the world rankings during his time on the circuit. Charismatic Italian player Fabio Fognini also retired in 2025 after achieving a career-high ninth place in the rankings in 2019.
Amongst the other 2025 retirees was Nicolas Mahut. Whilst mainly known as an exceptional doubles player, with 37 tour-level titles during his career, the Frenchman will also be remembered for his part in one of the most remarkable matches ever to take place at Wimbledon. In 2010, his first-round singles match against John Isner became the longest tennis match in history. Played over three days, and encompassing 11 hours and five minutes of play, Isner defeated Mahut 70-68 in the final set of what was to become known as the ‘endless match’.
In the men’s tour, 2025 was dominated by the ‘big two’, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. Alcaraz finished the year as world number one, and each player won two of the four Grand Slam tournaments. They are expected to continue their domination into 2026.
Amongst the young players looking to make inroads among the elite are Learner Tien and João Fonseca. They both won their first ATP titles last year and Tien also won the 2025 ATP Next Gen Finals, following on from Fonseca’s success in the same event the year before.
