Each year, the Australian Open official program serves as one of the best mementos of a fan’s tournament experience.
You can now get your copy of the AO 2024 Official Program to keep that tradition alive.
With a cover graced by defending champions Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka, this year’s program offers compelling features, informative bios and stats, and stunning photography – all packaged within 156 beautifully designed pages.
“The Australian Open program is both a perfect companion for the summer of tennis and a cherished collectible for many readers,” said managing editor, Vivienne Christie.
“While you will want to keep it by your side as a reference on the world’s top players throughout January, it often becomes a part of many fans’ sporting collection thanks to its stunning pictorials, beautiful design and high production values.”
Those qualities are also evident in the publication’s carefully crafted editorial.
Delving into one of the most fascinating narratives of the early 2024 season, Nick McCarvel previews how the ‘comeback queens’ – former AO champions Naomi Osaka, Caroline Wozniacki and Angelique Kerber – might navigate a new world order in women’s tennis.
The past and present of men’s tennis is also a theme as Simon Cambers explores the fascinating contrasts between the world’s top two men, Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz – players separated by 16 years in age.
Australian tennis icons feature as Christie profiles Australian No.1 Alex de Minaur, while Leigh Rogers provides a comprehensive guide to other home-grown players striving for AO glory.
Another Australian icon, Evonne Goolagong Cawley, will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of her first Australian Open title, a 1974 breakthrough revisited by Suzi Petkovski.
Fans can also hone their Australian Open general knowledge, read about Lleyton Hewitt’s induction into the Australian Tennis Hall of Fame, celebrate more than a century of AO champions on the honour roll, and discover more about the world’s top 50 men and women in the publication’s player profiles.
The Australian Open 2024 Official Program is available in Australian newsagencies and can be ordered through the Australian Open online shop.
Fans can also get their copy, for $20, on site at Melbourne Park during AO 2024 from 8-28 January.
