Held at the Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club in Melbourne, The Priceline Pharmacy Kooyong Classic runs from Tuesday 12 January to Friday 15 January. Read on to find out how you can win tickets!
There’s something special about going to Kooyong for a tennis tournament. As the former home of the Australian Open, you can feel the history and culture. Another great aspect is that the players are really accessible as they walk to, and from, the court, so you have a great opportunity to take photos and get autographs.
Thanks to the fabulous team at the Priceline Pharmacy Kooyong Classic, I have two sets of two standard tickets to give away which can be used either on Day 1 (12 January) or Day 2 (13 January). View the Day 1 and 2 Schedule here.

Jan says
I would love to go to watch tennis live in action with my two boys. It will be a great way to start the new year, and will be really inspiring for my elder boy who will be starting tennis lessons in the new year!
Nikki says
Love the tennis and no place like Kooyong for some history and some great matches. Love to go
Klemens says
Seeing Zwerev life wil be a preview of future Tennis, can’t wait to see it!
vivian says
I’ve been there once and loved the atmosphere! A more intimate and low key experience than the Australian Open with some truly great players. My travel journey is quite long to the Kooyong but all worth it. Would love to go again to watch my favourite, Gilles Simon, play on the court up close.
Tallulah Grauaug says
I would love to go to the Kooyong classic!! I’ve never been before as I live in Perth. I’m in Melbourne for the next 3 weeks and competing in tournaments myself and this would be such good inspiration for me to see one of the Aussie greats play (Kyrgios). Maybe I can learn from their energy and court skills to improve my own game, as I one day hope to be there, on centre court ,playing at Kooyong! 🙂
Kelly Brown says
I would love to win tickets because I love playing tennis and watching it. It would be fantastic to win a nice day out being involved in something I love. Here’s hoping I’m lucky 😉 . Thanks.
Shae says
I’ve grown up my entire life being a tennis and grew up playing tennis, coached by “Woofa” in Traralgon. I’ve not been to the tennis in years due to other commitments but I would love to see who is on the rise both in Australia and overseas and see the talent in action. It would be a wonderful day out to see the tennis in Melbourne.
Dinelka says
I’ve never been to the Kooyong Classic tournament before but have heard & seen photos of what an awesome time Happyslamtennis had there last year & would love the opportunity to see all the players up close. Definitely seems like a more intimate setting than AO (which I also love) & an amazing experience for any tennis fan!
Karen Woolsey says
It feels like a new year of possibilities! I’m ready for new opportunities and the Kooyong Classic will definitely start the year off with a bang! An iconic Melbourne experience that this Melbournian would embrace with joy and enthusiasm!
Babak Pakravan says
I am a huge fan of tennis a die hard actually but I have never gone to an event before and not having travelled since 2005 I hope this will be my chance to see the beauty and hospitality of Australia and maybe even snag some merchandise.
Megan says
It’s time for this girl who was too scared to go to the tennis to actually go to the tennis! (silly anxiety and agoraphobia) Kooyong has a sentimental place in my heart as my Mum owned a tennis clothes shop right next door on Glenferrie Rd called Deuce in late 70s early 80s. The biggest sales ever was when it rained unexpectedly at Aust Open when it was Kooyong. Everyone poured in to the shop to buy long sleeve tops and jackets #truestory
Afrodita Vandenberg says
I LOVE tennis and have always wanted to go to this, I’ll be able to cross it off my bucket list. Also I’ll be the best mum ever as my kids are also huge tennis fans!!
kylie says
Up close and personal tennis viewing at the ‘spiritual home’ of Melbourne tennis? Yes please!
Clive says
I’d love to go to the Kooyong Classic to see the up and coming players, and possible stars of the future, in the 2016 field and the always entertaining Marcos Baghdatis!
