  • Grand Slams’ Are Iconic Global Sports Competitions And, As Proven by the 2017 Australian Open, Capable of Drawing Blockbuster Audiences
    The four tennis ‘grand slams’ are iconic global sports competitions and, as proven by the 2017 Australian Open, capable of drawing blockbuster audiences. Roger Federer’s victory over Rafael Nadal brought Eurosport its largest-ever audience for a tennis match with 20.7 million viewers across Europe, while in the host country, the 3.6-million (4.4-million peak) figure was the highest audience for the final in over a decade. The prestige and image attached to grand slam tennis is not lost on the sport’s broadcast partners. For domestic broadcasters this has led to a continuous fee increase for the quartet of slams. Using Sportcal’s Revenue Dashboard – available to subscribers of the Media Intelligence Centre – to analyse the domestic revenue generated, Sportcal Insight examines how the grand slams have enhanced their domestic rights revenues. Currency conversions, where possible, have been done at the time of the deal and modelled data has been used for incremental rises during a rights agreement. All grand slams have long-running domestic deals with established broadcasters. This, it can be argued, limits competition and the potential for mushrooming revenues, resulting in a more modest rise than might otherwise be the case. In Australia, free-to-air network Seven’s most recent deal with Tennis Australia is under investigation by the country’s corporate watchdog because a competitive bidding process wasn’t launched, amid claims that the governing body could have raised an extra A$50 million ($45 million) had the rights been taken to the open market. The 2017 women’s Australian Open final attracted 360,000 more viewers than the final of T20 cricket’s Big Bash League (aired on another free-to-air broadcaster, Network Ten, at the same time).

  • Grand Slam Tennis Back at Melbourne Park
    Monday, 8 February 2021 GRAND SLAM TENNIS BACK AT MELBOURNE PARK The Australian Open kicks off in Melbourne today, with strict public health directions in place across the Melbourne Park precinct to protect the efforts of Victorians to combat coronavirus. Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Martin Pakula praised the ongoing work of Victorians to contain coronavirus, which has made it possible for the Grand Slam tournament to proceed. Melbourne Park is divided into three zones around Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena and John Cain Arena as part of rigorous infection prevention and control measures in place to ensure the safety of players, officials, and the broader Victorian community. Dedicated entry points will apply for each zone and no movement will be permitted between the zones. There will be a daily crowd capacity of 30,000 for the first eight days, with 25,000 per day from the quarter-finals and 12,500 in Rod Laver Arena for the final three days of the tournament. Over the two weeks of the event, this will equate to about half of the average attendance in the past three years. The Australian Open is a key pillar of Victoria’s major event program – last year it contributed an estimated $387 million to the state’s visitor economy. The Victorian Government has invested almost $1 billion over the past 10 years in upgrading and expanding Melbourne Park so that it can continue to host the Open until at least 2039. When completed in time for the 2023 Australian Open, the final stage in the Melbourne Park redevelopment will have created 2,300 full-time jobs through the Andrews Labor Government’s Local Jobs First Policy.

  • Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne
    Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne Margaret Court Arena is the third largest venue for Australian open. The Margaret Court Arena is the third and latest addition to the Melbourne Park. It is the third largest venue for the Australian Open, after the Rod Laver Arena and the Hisense Arena. It is famous for its retractable roof that opens and closes in 5 minutes- the fastest retractable roof in the world. Just before the 2003 Australian Open, the Margaret Court Arena was renamed after the famous Australian woman player, Margaret Court. Prior to this it was called ‘Show Court One’. Please take a look at the seating plan before booking your seats for the Australian Open. A 700 million dollar project was undertaken in 2010- the Melbourne Park masterplan- and the renovation of the MCA was carried out under this project. The court was then transformed into a multi purpose venue for sporting and entertainment events alike. Seating capacity too increased from 6000 to 7500. Entertainment at Margaret Court Arena : Margaret Court Arena with its intimate seat setting and variable seating capacity that can range from 5000 to 8000, has become hot favorite among musicians and music enthusiasts alike, as a venue for live music. Australian hip hop pioneers Hilltop Hoods, performed at the MCA as a part of their Cosby Sweater Tour. Sports at Margaret Court Arena: Tennis: Margaret Court Arena is known to offer one of the best tennis viewing experiences to spectators. When the Margaret Court Arena opens its grounds to Australian Open this year, the Melbourne Park will become the only Grand Slam Tennis venue to have three stadiums with retractable roofs.

By keeping Photo: Nathan Duff Photo: his eye on the ball and recognising opportunities for innovation. By Christopher Connolly. ENGINEERS AUSTRALIA | MARCH 2017 39 COVER STORY hen Aurecon recently won the job of redesigning the retractable roof on the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, it could W point to a lot of experience in this field both in Australia and overseas. But back in the 1990s when Connell Wagner (one of Aurecon’s forerunners) pitched for the job on the roof at Docklands Stadium in Melbourne, the team there had no experience. Luckily, it had a mechanical engineer in Queensland who had done a lot of work on large stockyard machines weighing 1000 t, which arguably have greater design challenges than those facing the roof at Docklands. “We put the case that it was actually less complex than these big, moving, materials handling machines that we had done a lot of,” says that engineer, John Leech. When Connell Wagner won that contract, Leech had to become an expert in retractable roofs quickly, exploring state-of-the-art solutions overseas. But he says the solution proposed was different to anything else being done at that time.
