UAAP tennis championships

Tennis championship


Summary

Tennis championship

Tennis has been a sport in the program of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) men's division since the 1949–1950 season. The women's tennis competition started in the 2001–2002 season.

Tournament format

There are two championships contested, one for men, and another for women. A tournament is akin to the Davis Cup and the Billie Jean King Cup, where a tie consists of up to five matches, each best-of-three sets. The first three matches are singles, and the last 2 matches, if necessary, are doubles. Teams then play a double round-robin tournament, where the teams are ranked by ties won. The top four teams then qualify to the playoffs under the UAAP Final Four format.

There are no separate singles and doubles championships, nor are mixed doubles are held.
