Notes
About the Tournament
The National Open Hard Court Championships is a great tournament
for all competitive players. Former Champion Jack Sock won the
Men's Open Singles in 2010 and teamed with his brother Eric to win
the doubles in 2011, and soon thereafter his career took off. 2017
Australian Open semifinalist CoCo Vandeweghe also played in the
National Open before witnessing a meteoric rise in her ranking.
Many serious juniors, high school, college players and touring pros
participate as well as local and out of state competitive players,
looking for some great matches and competitive play to test their
skills. There are no restrictions and you are guaranteed two
matches for each event you enter. The tournament has a first match
consolation format for all events.

The Men's Open Singles play will begin on Monday, May 27 at 9:00
a.m., which is Memorial Day. The Women's Open Singles usually

draws close at noon on Sunday, May 26. Men's Doubles usually starts
