The Australian Hard Court Championships[1][2] was a former professional tennis tournament established in 1938 and held until 2008. The event was played on clay courts until 1977 when it switched to hard courts. The tournament was a combined event for men and women until the end of the 1980s.[3] In 2009, Tennis Australia merged the separate men's and women's tournaments into a new combined tournament called the Brisbane International.[4][5]
