MELBOURNE: Australian Open, the first Grand Slam of the tennis calendar year, has announced that Dunlop will be replacing Wilson as its official ball partner for the next five years. 

Dunlop will also be providing balls for all levels of Tennis Australia-sanctioned tournaments and its low compression balls will be used in the governing body’s key development program, ANZ Tennis Hot Shots.

“We are delighted to partner with Dunlop on the new Australian Open ball,” Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley said.
