The IJF World Tour is a worldwide top-tier judo tour, organized by the International Judo Federation since 2009.
The IJF World Tour consists of the annual World Championships and World Masters, a series of Grand Slam and Grand Prix tournaments, the annual continental championships and open meets organized by the respective continental judo unions, as well as the annual World Juniors Championships. Achievements in these competitions are rewarded with ranking points, which are then used to determine a judoka's world ranking.
