Australian Open: From 'Other Slam' to Premier Sporting Event
The Australian Open went from a struggling major to the most attended Grand Slam. Here's how Tennis Australia made it happen.
In the 1970s and '80s, the Australian Open was a struggling major. Prize money was low, and many top players skipped the event. In 1993, Jeff Pollard and Paul McNamee were appointed to lead Tennis Australia and the Australian Open. McNamee reshaped the tournament's image and reputation, and the Australian Open began to thrive.
