Austin's Premier WTA Tour Tournament

Following a successful event in 2025, Austin is gearing up for the return of the ATX Open professional women's tennis tournament in 2026.

The WTA 250 tournament is one of the first U.S.-based events on the 2026 Hologic WTA Tour calendar and will celebrate its fourth installment from February 21 to March 1, 2026. The event will be held at Austin’s Westwood Country Club, which will be transformed to include a 1,700-seat Center Court and amenities for thousands of tennis fans. 

The tournament is Austin’s largest women’s sporting event, with matches played across nine days.
