1 Point Slam Returns to Australian Open with Million-Dollar Prize

The Australian Open is set to feature another unique and exciting pre-event tournament in 2027, the million-dollar 1 Point Slam. This thrilling competition, which took place earlier this year, offers a top prize of one million Australian dollars ($705,000 USD) and has quickly become a fan favorite for its unpredictable single-point knockout format.

Last year's edition saw local amateur Jordan Smith make history by defeating Jannik Sinner and eventually winning the final against Taiwan's Joanna Garland. This life-changing win turned him into a millionaire in Australian dollars and inspired a new wave of participants.

The 1 Point Slam blends professionals, amateurs, and celebrities, ensuring entertainment and surprises for fans and players alike. From next week, affiliated clubs, associations, coaches, and partner schools across Australia can register to host qualifying events leading up to the Melbourne Park final.
