How tickets actually work

No ballot. Buy at the general on-sale via official partner Ticketmaster (ticketmaster.com.au/ausopen), which uses a waiting room that assigns a RANDOM queue position at on-sale time (queue randomization, not a ballot). Earlier access: free AO Extras sign-up presale, Mastercard cardholder presale, and an accessibility presale.
