What is the World Tennis Masters Tour?
It is World Tennis (ITF)'s international circuit for players aged 30 and over, with tournaments in more than 70 nations. Results earn world ranking points in each age group.
How old do I need to be?
30 or over. Age groups go up in five-year steps and are set by the age you turn during the year (you can play from January, even before your birthday).
Do I need ranking points to enter?
No. If you're 30 or over and registered on World Tennis Tour Zone (formerly IPIN), you can enter with no points. Points only decide the order of acceptance when there are more entries than places, and the seeds; unranked players are drawn at random after the deadline.
How many events can I enter?
Up to three events at one tournament. Only one of them can be singles; if you play singles you can add up to two doubles or mixed doubles events, and without singles you can play up to three doubles/mixed events. Some tournaments set a lower limit on their fact sheet. You can't enter tournaments whose dates overlap. There is no limit on how many tournaments you play in a year.
Does registering on Tour Zone cost anything?
Registering as a Masters player is free. Each tournament has a USD 12 (or JPY 2,000) fee on top of the entry fee, for up to 5 tournaments a year (max USD 60); from the 6th it's free.
Can I register my name in my own script?
No. Enter your given name and family name in Latin letters. You don't need a passport.
How do I know I'm registered?
A confirmation e-mail arrives after the final screen. Press "here" or reopen tourzone.world.tennis — if you can LOGIN, you're registered.
A payment screen appeared during sign-up.
Masters is free. If Masters Tour shows $0.00, press CONTINUE. If an amount appears, press CHANGE CIRCUITS and pick only Masters Tour.
My English isn't great. Can I still register?
Yes. Follow the sign-up slides on the "First time?" page, and use your browser's translate feature for the English screens. If you're stuck, use "Ask AI" or contact us.
Do I need to speak English?
No. Matches run on scores and standard tennis words, and at the venue you only need short set phrases for sign-in and checking your court. See the sign-up slides and venue phrases on the "Getting started" page.
What do I need to enter?
A World Tennis Tour Zone registration (formerly IPIN). Create an account on Tour Zone and enter tournaments from that account.
When is the entry deadline?
Normally 10:00 GMT on the Tuesday six days before the Monday of the tournament week. Some tournaments differ, so check the tournament page. This site shows each deadline in your time and in venue time.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the tournament. On top of the entry fee, an ITF / IPIN service fee (equivalent to USD 12) applies to each tournament. Amounts and payment methods are on each tournament page.
What if I withdraw after the deadline?
At most tournaments the withdrawal deadline is the same as the entry deadline. Some tournaments still charge the entry fee if you withdraw after it. Check the notes under "Entry fee" on the tournament page.
Where can I see draws and results?
On the official World Tennis website. When a tournament sends us draw PDFs, we also post them on its page here.
What if this site and the World Tennis website differ?
The World Tennis website is the official source. If you spot a difference, please let us know through Contact.
