The Four Grand Slam Majors
The Grand Slams form the foundation of professional tennis, contested over two weeks with best-of-five sets for men and best-of-three for women.
- Australian Open (Melbourne): Played on hard courts in January heat, known for high bounce and physical baseline battles.
- Roland Garros / French Open (Paris): Contested on red clay, favoring slide defense, heavy topspin, and marathon rallies.
- Wimbledon (London): The historic grass-court championship demanding low-skidding slice, rapid serves, and aggressive net play.
- US Open (New York): Fast-paced DecoTurf hard courts with electric night sessions and tie-break conclusions.
