Grand Slam tournaments

Grand Slam tournaments are the four most prestigious events in professional tennis: the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open. Held annually, they feature the world's top players competing over two weeks for significant prize money and ranking points. Each tournament is played on a different surface—hard, clay, or grass—testing players’ versatility. Winning all four titles in a single year is called a "Grand Slam" and is a rare achievement. These events are highly competitive, with rich histories, and are considered the pinnacle of professional tennis.
