Australian Open WinnersBy Patrick Mondout
The Australian Open was held in December of each year from 1977 until
1985. The date was switched back to January for the next event, which
happened 13 months later in January 1987. This is why there are no
winners listed below for 1986. The "mixed doubles"
competition was reintroduced in 1987 for the first time since Billie Jean
King and Dick Crealy won in 1968. (Winners from the Super70s are here
and all-time Grand Slam winners are here).
