Some of the world’s top tennis talent, an unbeatable stadium experience, and a setting in South Carolina’s Lowcountry make for an event that few other venues can match.
The Credit One Charleston Open has become a premier stop on the women’s tour at a time when American women fill the WTA rankings, including three inside the top 10. Tournament Director Bob Moran said the prevalence of American women’s tennis is just one of many reasons this has become a highly viewed event.
“Number one, we’re an American tournament, and we love when American tennis is going well,” he said.
In fact, it’s going very well for players who will be on the courts for this year’s tournament, which kicks off on March 28th and runs through April 5th.
The games’ top names will be in Charleston, including Amanda Anisimova, who played in two Grand Slam finals in 2025. Madison Keys, a past Australian Open champion, and Jessica Pegula, the Charleston Open’s defending champion, will all be featured in the draw. And of course, hometown favorite, Emma Navarro.
This high caliber of play makes the Charleston Open unique, Moran explained. He said this year’s draw is a combination of up-and-coming talent and tennis veterans.
