Launceston International 2025

The much-anticipated return of the Launceston International tournament is here from Sunday 23 February to Sunday 2 March 2025.

Part of the ITF World Tennis Tour and Australian Pro Tour, the 2025 Launceston International has a strong Australian contingent, with four Australian women among the tournament’s top 10 accepted players – including 2020 Launceston international doubles Champion and former Hobart International player Jaimee Fourlis – and four Australian men also among the tournament’s top 10 accepted players. Further adding to the local interest, 19 Australians will compete in the men’s qualifying draw, including Cruz Hewitt.

Omar Jasika headlines a strong men’s field having won the Burnie International title twice including last year and he will be hoping to add another Tasmanian title to his record.

The tournament also welcomes former Grand Slam sensation,2015 Burnie International Champion and 2015 Launceston International Finalist, Hyeon Chung (KOR). Chung made history at the 2018 Australian Open by becoming the first Korean player to reach a Grand Slam semifinal. During his remarkable run in Melbourne, Chung defeated then-world No. 4 Alexander Zverev and six-time Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic before falling to Roger Federer in the semifinals. That achievement saw him become Korea’s highest-ranked player at the time, reaching a career-high ranking of No. 19 in 2018.
