mostra másThe USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center showcases several high-capacity stadiums, with the largest being Arthur Ashe Stadium, which has a seating capacity of approximately 23,771, making it the largest tennis-specific stadium in the world. Following Arthur Ashe Stadium in prominence and size within the complex are Louis Armstrong Stadium and the Grandstand, each known for their advanced architectural designs and audience capacity.
The transformation and expansion of the National Tennis Center have been pivotal in accommodating the growing popularity and scale of the US Open. Recent renovations include the addition of retractable roofs on Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong stadiums, ensuring play can continue during inclement weather, thus unobstructed by rain—a frequent challenge in past tournaments.
This venue does not just serve as a competitive arena but also as a public tennis facility outside the US Open period, making tennis accessible to New Yorkers, with a portion of the revenue generated used to fund various tennis programs across the United States.
The USTA’s efforts in promoting tennis at the grassroots and professional levels from this complex underscore its crucial role not only in American tennis but also on the global stage, reflecting the sport's evolving dynamics and the increasing emphasis on making sports venues more versatile and community-focused.
