The rest of the season
3 events are left on the calendar after the US Open. The tour leaves North America for the Asian hard courts, then closes with the two season finals, where only the eight best players of the year get a place.
The season
Tennis has no league table and no fixture list that everyone plays. It has a circuit. Players choose their tournaments, earn points for how far they go, and carry those points for exactly one year before they expire. That single rule shapes everything: a champion who skips a tournament in January is losing ground in January a year later, whether or not they lost a match.
The season runs from the middle of January to the middle of November and moves by surface, not by geography. It opens on hard courts in Australia, spends the spring on European clay, compresses a whole grass season into five weeks around Wimbledon, returns to hard courts for the North American summer and the Asian autumn, and closes indoors.
Below the four majors sit the 1000-level events: nine ATP Masters and ten WTA 1000 tournaments, six of which are played by both tours in the same fortnight at the same venue. They are the events the top players are expected at, and they decide the ranking, because the majors are too few to separate anyone.
Surfaces
Clay
The ball bites into the surface, loses speed and kicks up. Points get longer, serves matter less, and defence becomes a weapon. Players who grind and slide beat opponents ranked far above them, and a great server loses the advantage that carries them the rest of the year.
4 of 19 tournaments, April to early June
Grass
The bounce stays low and the ball skids on, so rallies are short and the server holds most of the cards. There is barely a month of grass tennis in the entire year, which is why the players who love it get so few chances to prove it.
1 of 19 tournaments, three weeks in summer
Hard
Faster than clay, slower than grass, and used for more than half the season. Hard courts produce the fewest surprises: over two weeks the better player usually wins, which is why the rankings tend to hold and why both season finals are played on them.
14 of 19 tournaments, indoors at the end
A first-round match on clay between two defenders can run past three hours; the same pair on grass might be done in ninety minutes. If you are planning an evening around a match, the surface is the best predictor you have of how long it will last.
Rankings
| Pos | Player | Points |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |  Jannik Sinner | 11,000 |
| 2 | Alexander Zverev | 9,720 |
| 3 | Carlos Alcaraz | 5,560 |
| 4 | Ben Shelton | 4,680 |
| 5 |  Felix Auger Aliassime | 3,890 |
| Pos | Player | Points |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |  Elena Rybakina | 9,696 |
| 2 |  Aryna Sabalenka | 7,550 |
| 3 | Mirra Andreeva | 6,371 |
| 4 | Jessica Pegula | 6,225 |
| 5 | Cori Gauff | 5,974 |
Both lists are rolling 52-week totals published every Monday. A player can drop several places in a week they did not play, because the points they won at this time last year have expired. It is the reason the top of the rankings moves in the weeks after a major, and the reason a defending champion is under more pressure than the number quoted next to their name suggests.
Coverage
Tennis is one of the hardest sports to follow legally, and not because it is unpopular. Each major sells its television rights country by country, the ATP and WTA sell their tour events separately, and the smaller events on the calendar are frequently not broadcast at all. Following one player through a season usually means two or three different subscriptions, and even then there are gaps.
The gap is widest exactly where the interesting matches are. At a Grand Slam, the show courts are covered everywhere. On the outside courts, where the seeds get their first-round scares, there may be no camera crew at all beyond the tournament's own feed, and that feed does not always reach your country.
Our page for each tournament lists who carries it where, and the viewing guide explains what each service covers and what it leaves out.
Betting operators show a large part of the tour, early rounds included, and the live stream is free to watch online once you hold an account with them. There is no subscription to buy, though some operators want a funded balance or a recent bet before the video plays. Which service you reach depends on the country you are watching from.

Questions
Two tournaments are under way: the Wuhan Open on hard courts in Wuhan, started on 12 Oct 2026, and the Shanghai Masters on hard courts in Shanghai, started on 7 Oct 2026.
19 at the level this site covers: 4 majors, the ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 events, and the two season finals. The full calendar is here.
Because clay, grass and hard courts change the speed and the bounce of the ball, and with them the balance between serving and defending. A player built for one can be ordinary on another, which is why the clay season and the grass season have their own specialists.
Points are a rolling 52-week total. Every result counts for exactly one year and then drops off, so the list moves every Monday whether or not anyone played. ATP top 50, WTA top 50.
In two ways. Public broadcasters in several countries carry the majors free to air, and betting operators stream a wide part of the tour free to account holders, which is the only route that covers the early rounds. Neither charges a subscription, and outside them most legal coverage is paid. The guide goes through it country by country.
