Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will share the stage again in Australia 2027, although this time it will not be in a battle for a Grand Slam title. The two main stars of men's tennis have confirmed their participation in the One Point Slam, one of the most unique events on the calendar leading up to the Australian Open.

Joining them will also be Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka, completing a line-up of true luxury that will continue to add names. The peculiarity of the tournament is precisely that each match is decided on a single point. There is no room to correct mistakes, come back, or find the rhythm after several games. A single ball can make the difference, turning each confrontation into a mix of tennis, strategy, nerves, and pure spectacle.

Professionals and amateurs, together for a day

The qualifying rounds are already underway at various clubs across Australia, and any player can dream of reaching the grand stage. The grand final, which will bring together professionals and amateurs, will take place on Wednesday, January 13, 2027, at the Rod Laver Arena, one of the temples of world tennis.

The presence of Alcaraz and Sinner also adds an extra attraction to an event that strives each year to differentiate itself from traditional competition. Both will have to adapt to a completely different format than usual, where power, precision, and above all, the ability to handle pressure in an instant will be decisive.

Alcaraz and Sinner. Gauff and Osaka. A quartet of names that guarantees spectacle in a One Point Slam that once again demonstrates that the Australian Open is not only about great matches of three or five sets, but also has room for bolder ideas.
