2026 ATP Tour Calendar Is Here, Detailing a Global Tennis Odyssey
The ATP Tour has officially unveiled its highly anticipated 2026 calendar, setting the stage for a year of intense competition, thrilling rivalries, and global sporting drama. Stretching from the Australian summer to the indoor finals in Italy, the schedule maps out the competitive journey for the world’s elite male players across five continents. The comprehensive calendar outlines every major tournament, including the four Grand Slams, the nine ATP Masters 1000 events, and the season-ending championships, giving fans and players alike a clear roadmap for the year ahead.
The Southern Hemisphere Kick-Off and the Sunshine Double
The season launches in January with the multi-city team event, the United Cup, immediately followed by the Brisbane International in Australia. This early action serves as the perfect prelude to the first major of the year, the Australian Open (Weeks 3 and 4) in Melbourne, where players will battle for the coveted Grand Slam title on hard courts.
February sees the tour diversify its offerings. While indoor hard court action heats up with the Open Occitanie in Montpellier and the ABN AMRO Open in Rotterdam, the “Golden Swing” of South American clay-court tournaments begins, featuring the IEB Argentina Open in Buenos Aires and the Rio Open presented by Claro. This blend of surfaces and environments tests players’ adaptability right out of the gate.
March delivers the tour’s traditional blockbuster events: the “Sunshine Double”. The two-week Masters 1000 tournaments—the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells (Weeks 9 and 10) and the Miami Open presented by Itaú (Weeks 11 and 12)—draw the sport’s biggest crowds and offer massive ranking points. With 96-player draws in both events, these back-to-back tournaments are a grueling early-season test of endurance and skill on hard courts.
The European Clay and Grass Swings
Following the North American hard courts, the calendar transitions fully to the historic European clay circuit. The month-long build-up to Roland-Garros begins in April with the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters (Week 14), followed by the ATP 500 events in Barcelona and Munich. The clay court swing is then highlighted by the final two Masters 1000 tournaments on the surface: the Mutua Madrid Open (Weeks 16 and 17) and the Internazionali BNL D’Italia in Rome (Weeks 18 and 19), each featuring a demanding 96-player field. The spring season culminates with the second Grand Slam, Roland-Garros (Weeks 21 and 22), where players will compete for the ultimate clay court title.
June marks the shortest and most exciting surface change: the shift to grass. The preparation for Wimbledon is intense, with players competing at the Libema Open in ‘s-Hertogenbosch and the BOSS Open in Stuttgart. The key tune-up events follow in Week 24, including the Terra Wortmann Open (ATP 500) in Halle and the HSBC Championships (ATP 500) in London. The Grass Swing peaks at the end of the month with The Championships, Wimbledon (Weeks 26 and 27), where 128 players will vie for glory on the hallowed lawns of the All England Club.
American Hard Courts and the Final Stretch
The summer hard-court season kicks off in July with a brief return to clay in Europe, including tournaments in Bastad and Gstaad. However, the focus quickly shifts back to North America with the Mubadala Citi DC Open (ATP 500) in Washington, D.C.. August is dominated by the final two Masters 1000 events of the regular season: the National Bank Open presented by Rogers in Montreal (Weeks 31 and 32) and the Cincinnati Open (Weeks 32 and 33). These hard court events are critical warm-ups for the final Grand Slam, the US Open (Weeks 35 and 36) in New York, the climax of the North American summer.
The Tour’s final stretch in the fall takes players to Asia for the Rolex Shanghai Masters (Weeks 40 and 41), which is preceded by ATP 500 tournaments in Tokyo and Beijing. The late-season calendar also features important indoor tournaments in October, such as the Swiss Indoors Basel and the Erste Bank Open in Vienna.
The season concludes in November with the last Masters 1000 event, the Rolex Paris Masters (Week 44), followed by the prestigious ATP Finals in Italy (Week 46), where the top eight singles players and doubles teams compete for the end-of-year crown. Finally, the year wraps up with the Davis Cup Finals and the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF in Jeddah (Week 50), featuring the best under-21 players in the world. The 2026 calendar promises non-stop, high-stakes tennis action for fans around the globe.
