You can become an Australian Open multi-millionaire without even traveling to Melbourne Park if you live in Australia.
The Australian Open is offering fans the chance to win $10 Million Australian dollars, which is about $6.6 Million U.S. dollars, by correctly picking every match in the 2026 AO draw.
Powered by NEXO, here’s how the AO26 $10 Million Bracket Challenge will be contested:
- Entrants must submit their full bracket prediction via the official AO website or app once the singles draws are published on Thursday, January 15th, 2026 from 4 pm Melbourne time.
- Entries close one hour before the first main-draw match on Sunday, January 18th, 2026 at 10 am Melbourne time.
- Only one entry per person per draw (men’s OR women’s) is permitted, so you can’t flood the zone with several different draw backs.
- The Challenge is open to Australia residents only.
If no entrant picks a perfect bracket, consolation prizes will be awarded to the highest-scoring brackets in each draw, with $10,000 for the top men’s and women’s entries.
“This is a game of skill, not chance,” Tennis Australia Chief Commercial Officer Cedric Cornelis said.
“The AO Bracket Challenge is about rewarding tennis knowledge and creating an exciting new way for fans to engage with the tournament.”
The AO26 Bracket Challenge is open only to Australian residents this year. The tournament says there are “plans to expand internationally in future editions.”
