The 2026 men's calendar will feature 63 tournaments across 29 countries. As usual, the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open will be staged by the Grand Slam Board, the Davis Cup will remain under the International Tennis Federation, and the Laver Cup will continue to operate independently.

Beyond the four Slams, the ATP Finals will once again close out the regular season in Italy, while the nine ATP Masters 1000 tournaments retain their traditional positions on the calendar with only minor tweaks. Seven of those Masters events will run across 12 days, with Monte Carlo and Paris remaining one-week tournaments. The rest of the schedule includes 16 ATP 500 events and 29 ATP 250 tournaments.

The season's first Grand Slam, the Australian Open, will begin a week later than usual, running from Sunday, 18 January to Sunday, 1 February at Melbourne Park.

The French Open remains in its traditional window, starting on Sunday, 24 May, with the men's final set for Sunday, 7 June at Roland Garros in Paris.

Wimbledon will get underway on Monday, 29 June on the grass courts of the All England Club, with Championship weekend scheduled for 11-12 July. The US Open then rounds off the Grand Slam calendar from Monday, 31 August to Sunday, 13 September at Flushing Meadows.

As for the nine Masters events, the Sunshine Double will once again anchor the March schedule, with the Indian Wells Open running from 4-15 March and the Miami Open following from 18-29 March.

The Monte Carlo Masters opens the clay-court Masters swing from 5-12 April, before the Madrid Masters takes place from 22 April to 3 May, and the Italian Open follows from 6-17 May.

There is, of course, no grass-court Masters event, so the calendar shifts directly from Wimbledon to the North American hard-court swing.

Players will welcome a longer breather this time, with a three-week gap between Wimbledon and the Canadian Open, which now begins on 2 August. The event will once again feature a Wednesday final, concluding on 12 August.

That scheduling tweak benefits the Cincinnati Open, as the two Masters tournaments will no longer overlap. Cincinnati will run from 13-23 August, restoring a clear sequence in the build-up to the US Open.
