The 2026 ATP Tour Schedule brings a fresh wave of exciting tournaments! It’s time to update our definitive list of major men’s events. Keeping track of all your favorite tennis tournaments can be tough with their constantly shifting schedules. So, whether you’re a die-hard fan or just starting to follow the ATP Tour, consider this your comprehensive guide to the 2026 ATP Tour Schedule. From the four Grand Slams to the year-end ATP Finals, and everything in between, we’ve got you covered with a chronological list of all the must-see tennis tournaments.

Heads-Up: A New Masters 1000 Event is Coming

While the 2026 schedule is set, a major calendar change is confirmed for the near future:

  • Controversy: The ATP has confirmed an expansion of its elite tour despite persistent player complaints about fatigue and a grueling, over-packed schedule. Critics argue the financial incentives of a new event will pressure players to compete, effectively lengthening the season.
  • New Tournament: Saudi Arabia will host a 10th ATP Masters 1000 tournament starting as early as 2028.
  • Historical First: This marks the first expansion of the elite Masters 1000 category in its 35-year history.
  • Format: The new event is planned as a one-week tournament with a 56-player draw and is expected to take place early in the season, likely in February after the Australian Open.
  • Status: The tournament will be non-mandatory for players, similar to the Monte-Carlo Masters.

A quick word about the ATP ranking system: ATP rankings are based on the number of points a player earns at each tournament tier. Some tournaments are mandatory, while others are optional. A player’s ranking is the primary determining factor for automatic qualification into tournaments, seedings, and draws.

Understanding the ATP Ranking Points System

The ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) Ranking system determines player status by awarding points based on tournament level and performance over a rolling 52-week period. This tiered structure ensures that the biggest tournaments reward players the most, while performance at smaller events provides a solid foundation.

Grand Slams sit at the top, offering 2,000 points to the winner, which is a massive boost to a player’s annual total. Following closely are the ATP Masters 1000 events, the next most important mandatory tournaments for top players. Points then step down through the ATP 500 and ATP 250 series. A key aspect of the ranking is that points are dramatically reduced for each round a player is eliminated earlier than the final, incentivizing deep runs at every tournament level.

The table below shows a simplified breakdown of the points awarded for the major tournament categories. Please note that points can vary slightly for Masters 1000 and ATP 500 events depending on the specific draw size (e.g., a 96-player draw vs. a 56-player draw), but the values below represent the most common and prestigious formats.

The Tennis Grand Slams

The most prestigious tournaments in tennis, the Grand Slam tournaments (The Majors), are organized by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and not by the ATP. As you would imagine, the Majors also contribute the most ranking points and big prize money to players. A Grand Slam title win is worth 2000 ATP ranking points to a player.

ATP Finals

The final tournament of the tennis season, the ATP Finals, sits above the four major championships in prize money and comparable prestige. The top eight singles players and doubles teams qualify for the ATP Finals based on their ATP ranking at the end of the tennis season. Depending on the number of round-robin matches they win, the winner of the ATP Finals can earn up to a maximum of 1500 ATP ranking points. Jannik Sinner won the ATP Finals in 2024 and pocketed a whopping $4.8 million prize money.

ATP Masters 1000

Closely behind the majors and the ATP Finals are the prestigious ATP Masters 1000 tournaments. There are nine of them spread across North America, Europe, and Asia. From an ATP ranking perspective, eight of the nine Masters 1000 tournaments are considered mandatory. Monte-Carlo Masters remains the exception.

ATP 500

The next tier of tennis tournaments is the ATP 500, of which there are 16, which is up from the previous year’s count of 13. Each of these tournaments is worth 500 ATP ranking points to the winner. Top players are expected to play at least four ATP 500 tournaments to maintain their position in the ATP ranking system. Whether this expectation will change, due to the increase in the number of tournaments, remains to be seen.

ATP 250

Rounding up the ATP series of tournaments is the ATP 250, the 5th tier below those listed above. After tournament retirements and upgrades, at last check, the 250 series included 30 tournaments, with the singles winner awarded 250 ranking points. You can find current information and schedules at the ATP site.

ATP 500 500 300 180 90 45

Note on Points: The values in this table are based on the standard points for each level. The value marked with an asterisk (*) for the ATP 250 Round of 16 often varies between 20 and 25 points, depending on the draw size.
