The four major tennis tournaments are the Australian Open (January), French Open (May/June), Wimbledon (June/July), and US Open (Aug./Sept.) Both Australian Open and US Open are played on hard court surfaces. The Australian Open currently uses Plexicushion and the US Open uses hard court DecoTurf surface. The French Open is played on clay courts and Wimbledon is played on grass courts.
The Scottish Open is played at Loch Lomond, the week before The Open Championship.
Technically the ATP season ends some time after the U.S. Open so it is the last Grand Slam Tournament played, but in the next season the Australian Open is the next Grand Slam tournament played after the US Open.
From 2001-2010 it was played at the end of September, but in 2011 it will be played on the first week of October.

Before hard court, the Australian Open was played on grass. The tournament was played on grass from 1905 to 1987 and was switched to hard court in 1988 when the Australian Open was forced to move to a bigger venue. A Rebound Ace surface was used from 1988-2007 and Plexicushion is the current surface.
