Question

Which of the following statements with regard to Grand Slam Tennis Tournaments is/are correct? 1. The tournaments have a shared governance structure establishing the partnership among the four Grand Slam tournaments. 2. They are open for entry to all internationally ranked tennis players above the age of 14. 3. There is a limitation on the number of Wild Cards a player may receive.

Accepted Answer

Statement 1 is correct — the four Grand Slams collaborate through the Grand Slam Board (GSB) for shared governance. Statement 2 is incorrect — entry requires a ranking of 500 or better (not simply being internationally ranked and above 14). Statement 3 is incorrect — the official Grand Slam Rule Book has a "No Limitation" clause — there is no restriction on how many wild cards a player may receive over time.
