US Open Tennis

Ace after ace, roar after roar — the US Open turns late‑summer New York into tennis’s loudest, brightest stage. Starting in 2025, the main draw now spans 15 days, running from the final Sunday of August to the second Sunday of September⁴. Fan Week kicks things off with free‑entry qualifying rounds and practice sessions¹, while the mixed‑doubles championship now headlines that preview week². When the tournament begins, five marquee titles — men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles, plus mixed doubles — keep the action rolling day and night. And between matches, fans can explore the Open’s celebrated culinary lineup — from gourmet tacos and lobster rolls to celebrity-chef pop-ups.

Expect crowd favorites, Grand Slam champions, and rising phenoms — each aiming to leave their mark under the lights of Flushing Meadows.

First served in 1881, the US Open began on grass courts, switched to clay in 1975, and has thrived on acrylic hard courts since 1978³. Now staged at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, NY, it’s the season‑closing Grand Slam that routinely sets attendance records. Starting in 2025, the tournament stretches across 15 days instead of the traditional 14 to give fans even more marquee matchups⁴. Junior, senior, and wheelchair championships deepen the draw, proving tennis excellence knows every age and ability⁵.
