Points system
The tournaments were divided into twelve point categories. The highest points were allocated to the Grand Slam tournaments; French Open, the Wimbledon Championships, the US Open and the Australian Open. Points were allocated based on these categories and the finishing position of a player in a tournament. The points table is based on a 32 player draw. No points were awarded to first-round losers and advancements by default were equal to winning a round. The points allocation, with doubles points listed in brackets, was as follows:
| Grand Slam | $300,000+ | $275,000+ | $250,000+ | $225,000+ | $200,000+ | $175,000+ | $150,000+ | $125,000+ | $100,000+ | $75,000+ | $50,000+ |
