The ATP World Tour 500 series (previously known as the Grand Prix Super Series ,[ 1] ATP International Series Gold and the Championship Series )[ 2] is the third highest tier of men's tennis tournament after the four Grand Slam tournaments, and the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 .
The series includes 11 tournaments, with a number of 500 rankings points to win for the events' singles champions – which accounts for the name of the series. Tournaments have various draws of 32, 48 and 56 for singles and 16 and 24 for doubles. It is mandatory for leading players to enter at least four 500 events, including at least one after the US Open; if they play fewer than four, or fail to play in one after the US Open they get a "zero" score towards their world ranking for each one short.
Rafael Nadal holds the record for most titles won from this series. Juan Martin del Potro holds the record for most titles won in a calendar year with four.
