The DC Open is one of the longest-running professional tennis tournaments in the United States, played each summer on outdoor hardcourts at the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center in Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C. First staged in 1969, it sits on the North American hardcourt swing that leads into the US Open, giving fans a look at the tour's top players in a park-side setting.
The event began as the Washington Star International and has carried several names over the decades, including the Sovran Bank Classic, the Legg Mason Tennis Classic, and the Citi Open. Play ran on clay until 1986, when the tournament switched to hardcourts. A women's draw was added in 2011, and in 2023 the tournament merged with the Silicon Valley Classic to become the first joint 500-level event on the ATP and WTA tours. Washington, D.C. was chosen as the host city at the urging of Arthur Ashe, an early supporter and one of the game's most influential figures.
Championship weekend at Rock Creek Park has a distinct feel. Center court and the grandstand pack in crowds that mix longtime D.C. tennis regulars with casual fans drawn to the summer night sessions, while the side courts let spectators get close to matches in progress. The tournament is owned and managed by Mark Ein in partnership with IMG, and co-founders John A. Harris and Donald Dell have stayed closely involved since the event's early days.
