TheAtlanta Open was a professional men'stennis tournament that was played in theAtlanta area in theUnited States from 2010 to 2024, usually during July or August. The tournament was played on outdoor hard courts as part of theUSTA'sUS Open Series, the seven-week summer season lead-up to theU.S. Open. The Atlanta Open was known as theAtlanta Tennis Championships for its first two years before signing BB&T as a title sponsor in 2012. In 2015, the tournament was acquired by GF Sports from its then-owners, the USTA.[3]
The event was removed from the2025 calendar.[4]
In 2009, theAssociation of Tennis Professionals purchased the license for the tournament inIndianapolis because of low ticket sales and a struggle to attract top players.[5] In December 2009 it was announced that the ATP had sold the license to a group inAtlanta,Georgia, where it would be held at theAtlanta Athletic Club.[5] Prior to 2010 Atlanta had previously held a tennis tournament known as theVerizon Tennis Challenge from 1992 to 2001. That tournament, also held at the Atlanta Athletic Club, includedAndy Roddick,Pete Sampras,Andre Agassi andJohn McEnroe among its past champions.
In 2011 the tournament moved to the Racquet Club of the South in suburban Atlanta.[6] In 2012, the tournament gainedBB&T as title sponsor and changed its name to the BB&T Atlanta Open.[7] The 2012 and later editions have been held inAtlantic Station in midtown Atlanta. Temporary courts are constructed around the retail and residential area's central park. The main court has a capacity of 4,000 people.[8] In 2015, the tournament was acquired from the USTA byGF Sports.[9]
For its first six years, the Atlanta Open singles was dominated by Americans. Mardy Fish, Andy Roddick, and John Isner were the only men to win the event before Australian Nick Kyrgios defeated Isner in the 2016 final. Isner, a formerGeorgia Bulldog and local favorite, owns the tournament records for most finals (9) and most titles (6).
Eddie Gonzalez served as Atlanta Open Tournament Director from 2014-2022.
