Home/Previews/ASB Classic

The ASB Classic returns to Auckland, New Zealand for its 2026 edition, played from 12–17 Jan on Hard.

What's at stake in 2026

At 250 ranking points to the winner, this sits at the foundation of the tour calendar. It is where lower-ranked players earn ranking points to climb, and where top players occasionally drop in to fine-tune ahead of bigger events.

The 2026 edition of the ASB Classic has wrapped. The recap, full results and dates for the 2027 edition are below.

The conditions

Hard court is the global default, medium-paced, true-bouncing, tactically neutral. In Auckland form, fitness and serve quality usually decide who goes deep, more than any quirk of the surface.
