Each year, Tennis Australia receives a small allocation of tickets for the French Open and Wimbledon. To ensure there is a fair and equitable distribution of these tickets, a ballot is conducted by Tennis Australia to allocate these tickets.  As applications for tickets far exceeds supply there is no guarantee that applicants will receive tickets however every endeavour will be made to make an allotment to as many people as possible.

To be eligible for the ballot you must be a current member of an affiliated tennis club, Australian Open member, Tennis Australia Coach or Official member. To obtain your member number contact Elle Dignan at Tennis West on  6462 8303
