Jordan Smith Wins Inaugural ‘One Point Slam’ Ahead Of Australian Open
One Point Slam: Amateur tennis player Jordan Smith produced a fairytale run at Melbourne Park, stunning reigning Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner and a host of top professionals to clinch the inaugural ‘1 Point Slam’ exhibition event, held four days ahead of the start of the 2026 Australian Open.
The unique mixed-gender exhibition, hosted inside Rod Laver Arena, has a prize pool of AUD 1 million and brings together leading professionals and amateurs in a novel format where a single point decides matches. With professionals limited to just one serve, the event delivered high drama and unpredictable outcomes.
Despite the presence of some of the biggest names in world tennis, including Carlos Alcaraz, Coco Gauff, and Iga Swiatek, none of the established stars managed to lift the trophy. Instead, it was Sydney native Smith, who captured the spotlight, defeating five professional players during his remarkable run to the title.
