All the Best. All at Once.
For the first time, the top men and women converge on Cincinnati in the same week.
With more action, excitement and headline-grabbing players—2011 will be an exciting year for tennis in the Midwest.
Cincinnati's 2011 event shapes up like this: 8 days of main draw action, 8 match courts on the grounds of the Lindner Family Tennis Center, 250,000 fans and 2 singles champions at the end of the week.
2010 Champions Roger Federer and Kim Clijsters will try to defend their titles by fending off names like Rafael Nadal, Serena Williams, Novak Djokovic, Maria Sharapova and the rest of the top ranked players in the world.
The Western & Southern Open is a Premier event for the WTA (Women's Tennis Association). It is estimated that at least 7 of the world’s top 10 players will enter to compete for this prestigious title.
On the men's side, the Open is one of the largest, oldest and most respected events in the world of tennis. It is one of nine elite ATP World Tour Masters 1000 events, the strongest and most important tournaments on the ATP World Tour where all the top players are automatically entered.
By combining these two tournaments, the event becomes one of only five in the world with at least an ATP Masters 1000 and a WTA Premier event playing at the same venue during the same week(s).
