At their San Diego location, I watched players train at Rancho Valencia.. If arriving early, you may see rising ATP Pro and NextGen (under 21) Champion Brandon Nakashima training. An excellent Asian-American role model for kids in Southern California.
Marc Lopez joined the team in 2022. He is the most friendly coach and Rafa's doubles partner. At Madrid, he and Feliciano Lopez were honored at their retirement ceremonies.
They are only allowing the purchase of up to 16 tickets (8 reserved and 8 ground passes) for any given date - it is best to check out and open a new session if you want to buy tickets for multiple days.
Looking for access to European tennis tournaments like Wimbledon? Stubhub is a great way to get ahead of the box office line when they are not listed on Ticketmaster!
Should you wait for more options? I will explain how you could get a much better deal. Letting some people buy tickets at the full retail price first can be smart. Then you can get them much cheaper later if they find they cannot attend. Discounted tickets are coming out all summer long.
Tickets for the first week inside Ashe are discounted quite a bit and only look to be selling out for a while. It is the Labor Day weekend and Finals Weekend tickets that are pricy.
We have been monitoring ticket sales for over 15 years and have always found the best value on US Open tickets after the General Public Sale begins on July 15 @ 9AM EST.
There are usually more choices, so you will have a better idea of your travel plans to NYC by then, and the daily schedule of tennis events will be available by then.
So why wait if you know they will get sold out later? The Labor Day weekend or Finals Weekend are always popular, so you should consider buying these dates first.
For the weekday sessions, if you want to save some of your hard-earned money for the same tickets, read on! We want to help our fans get their US Open tickets for the dates they want at the best price possible. It pays to be patient this year, and we will explain.
Here are 3 tips that I recommend during the pre-sale:
Just having an Amex card in your wallet comes with many perks at the US Open as well (eg, FREE pedicab rides, US Open radios, Metro cards, etc*) - just show them your American Express Card.
Big action and stars in a much smaller venue in the Midwest!
It is also a Masters 1000 event and very family-friendly, which means much cheaper costs for hotels and food. The 2023 Final was amazing with Alcaraz and Djokovic, so they will return to Mason, Ohio for 2024 and 2025!
