Tournament

Rod Laver Arena where the Finals of the Australian Open will take place

The 2017 Australian Open will be the 105th edition of the tournament and will be held at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

The tournament will be run by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and is part of the 2017 ATP World Tour and the 2017 WTA Tour calendars under the Grand Slam category. The tournament consists of both men's and women's singles and doubles draws as well as a mixed doubles event. There are singles and doubles events for both boys and girls (players under 18), which are part of the Grade A category of tournaments, and also singles, doubles and quad events for men's and women's wheelchair tennis players as part of the NEC tour under the Grand Slam category.

The tournament will be played on hard courts and takes place over a series of 25 courts, including the three main show courts: Rod Laver Arena, Hisense Arena and Margaret Court Arena.[2]

Broadcast

In Australia, selected key matches will be broadcast live by the Seven Network. The majority of matches will be shown on the network's primary channel Channel Seven, however during news programming nationwide and most night matches in Perth, coverage will shift to either 7Two or 7mate. Additionally, every match will be also available to be streamed live through a free 7Tennis mobile app.[3]
