Lexus British Tour
The Lexus British Tour is a tennis circuit for professional players wanting to compete on home soil, young stars with ambitions of going pro in the future, and national level players who still compete at a high level – in other words, the very best of British tennis.
With approximately 30 Lexus British Tour events each year, players climb up and down the leader board depending on their results. Whoever sits top at the end of the year is crowned the Lexus British Tour Bonus Pool Champion.
We also have our Lexus British Tour Masters event – a one off tournament in the calendar with the biggest prizes on offer. Previous champions include none other than US Open title winner, Emma Raducanu.
Find out everything you need to know about the Lexus British Tour.
The LTA's Lexus British Tour events often have a range of different players competing – from junior rising stars to national level adults or even pro players.
The tournaments are open age group category with a mixture of adults and juniors competing and are LTA Grade 1 (Premier & Tier 1) & LTA Grade 2 (Tier 2) events.
You can play more than one tournament in the same week provided you have completed the previous tournament.
If you have played in an ITF tournament, you will need to have been released by the ITF Supervisor of that tournament as you cannot compete in multiple tournaments at the same time.
Performance wild cards
Two wild cards per draw may be awarded at the discretion of our Performance Team. These are usually given to young / junior players who don’t yet have an ATP or WTA ranking to help give them experience at the next level.
Tournament Director wild cards
The Tournament Director can then also give out between one and four wild cards to specific applicants. Further wild cards can also be awarded for any qualifying draws and if there are more spaces available in the main draw.
Wild cards are allocated in order of ATP / WTA singles ranking, then ITF World Tennis singles ranking of 1500 or better, followed by ITF World Tennis Number.
To request a wild card – contact the British Tour Tournament Director. Any requests must be made by Friday (midday) before the event for main draw, and by the withdrawal deadline for qualifying.

Tournament formats vary but a Lexus British Tour event will usually take place over a week. They often start with qualifying on Monday and the main draw taking place from Wednesday through to Saturday.
However, some events won’t have qualifying and others will only be three-day tournaments – so please check the competition schedule and format before you enter.
Draw sizes range from 28-32 and matches are played as best of three sets with a match tie-break in the decider.
