Australian Hard Court Championships

(Redirected from Next Generation Adelaide International)

The Australian Hard Court Championships[1][2] was a former professional tennis tournament established in 1938 and held until 2008. The event was played on clay courts until 1977 when it switched to hard courts.

Notes

edit
Notes 1: From inception in 1938 the men's and women's events of the championships were hosted at the same locations and venues for most of its duration until 1986. Though there were a few exceptions after 1986, the name of the event- the (national title)- remained but the tournaments were separated into individual events for men and women[41] until 2008.
Notes 2: As early as 1949, the (national championships) were occasionally held in conjunction with other tournaments[42] which has been the case in more recent times.[37]
