Grand Slam Tournament:

Australian Open
The Australian Open is the youngest of the four Majors. This tournament started in 1905 and was played on grass courts. The tournament as we know it today has been hosted at the Melbourne Tennis Centre since 1988.

French Open
Until 1925 the French National Tournament was only held as a national event. Roland Garros started in 1891 with the men's championships, while the ladies joined in 1897.

Wimbledon
This prestigious event started in 1877 and has been played on grass since then. This event caused for the amateur and professional circuit to merge in 1968 and through this move the "open" era began.

US Open
The US Open was played on grass at the West Side Lawn Tennis Club in New York, before 1975. This year would introduce American Clay to the event, although only short lived seeing that in 1977 USTA (United Stated Tennis Association) constructed a new National Tennis Centre. This meant that the event would become a hard court tournament, situated at Flushing Meadows, New York.
