Fresh off the Brisbane International, Pat Rafter Arena will once again host some of Australia’s finest emerging tennis stars as the Australian Open draws to a close.
World No.91 Adam Walton and grand slam doubles champion Rinky Hijikata have been locked in to feature 2025 Brisbane QTC Tennis Internationals, taking place from January 26 to February 2.
The competition will also feature compatriot Tristan Schoolkate, who ended world No.1 Jannik Sinner’s streak of 29 consecutive set victories at the Australian Open.
On the women’s side of the draw, Queenslanders Lizette Cabrera, Kaylah McPhee and Emerson Jones will be joined by Maddison Inglis, Talia Gibson, Astra Sharma, and Taylah Preston, along with Victorian standout Destanee Aiava.
The competition will launch back-to-back Brisbane QTC International events, with the second taking place from February 2 to 9 and all free to the public.
“The Brisbane QTC Tennis International is a fantastic chance to experience world class tennis right here in Brisbane. With a dynamic mix of rising local stars and international tennis players, this event promises to be an unforgettable week of competition,” tournament director Francis Soyer said.
“We’re thrilled to see the qualifying rounds kick off this Sunday, and with such a strong line-up, it’s shaping to be a spectacular week of tennis.”
