Citi Open Tennis (2012)
For the first time in the event’s 43 year history, the Citi Open has expanded the field to include female participants. The ATP World Tour hard-court tournament changed its name to the Citi Open, after being known as the Legg Mason Tennis Classic since 1994. The 2012 Citi Open ATP World Tour 500 Level men’s event is recognized as one of the top 20 ATP events in the world offering nearly $1.5M in prize money. The WTA tournament, which was historically held the week before the then Legg Mason Tennis Classic, will now be played simultaneously with the men’s event and offers $220,000 in prize money.
The tournament took place at the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center in the Rock Creek Park section of Washington, DC., from July 28 thru August 5, 2012.
