History US Open Tennis

For many years the main venue at the USTA Tennis Center was Louis Armstrong Stadium, but in 1997 the facility was updated and the new 23,000-seat Arthur Ashe Stadium opened featuring luxury suites, five restaurants and many other amenities.

With a history dating back to 1881, the US Open has been a showcase of champions over the years with stars like Ivan Lendl, Boris Becker, John McEnroe, Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick and most recently three-time defending champion Roger Federer. In the women's bracket, Serena and Venus Williams have combined for four titles in recent years but a new crop of stars like Kim Clijsters, Amelie Mauresmo, Lindsay Davenport and 2006 champ Maria Sharapova have emerged to challenge the Williams sisters.
