National Tennis Centre - home of the Australian Tennis Open

Another great Melbourne sporting venue is the National Tennis Centre where one of the 4 major tennis �Grand Slam� events (Wimbledon, French, US and Australian Opens), the Australian Tennis Open is held in January each year. Past champions here have been the likes of Agassi, Courier, Hingis, Williams, Navratilova etc

The main tennis stadium is unique compared to the other 3 grand slam venues in that it has a retractable roof � hence no worries about the Melbourne weather, mate! Perhaps the British can do something about Wimbledon.
