Beware of the very interesting lineup of players joining the latest innovation of the 2026 Australian Open. It's a mini-tournament as an exhibition where 10 amateur players will face off against 22 professionals, with each match worth one point. Already confirmed as 'pros' are Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Nick Kyrgios, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff. We will have to wait to see which team walks away with 1 million Australian dollars.
Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff join Carlos Alcaraz & Nick Kyrgios in the 1 Point Slam at the Australian Open.
