Tennis has reached the North American region and players are getting ready for the hardcourt events. The Western and Southern Open begins on the 14th of August and will be concluded on the 22nd of August. It is one of the highly anticipated events on the calendar.

Like most of the last season and the initial part of the current season, organizers at various tournaments had to make a harsh decision of not allowing crowds. The main reason for this decision was the ongoing war with the coronavirus. However, fans will be allowed to attend the matches up to full capacity taking place at the Western and Southern Open this year. 

The tournament chief operating officer stated, “In keeping with the guidance from local government officials, we are eager to welcome fans back to the Western & Southern Open. The fans bring so much energy and excitement to our event, and we dearly missed them last year. We look forward to returning to Cincinnati and welcoming our fans at this year’s tournament.”

Western and Southern Open to sell tickets digitally

Ticket sales have already begun and are selling rapidly. However, this year the sales of the tickets will be done digitally, through online transactions. Nonetheless, the transition to digital ticketing will have no impact on the process to purchase tickets when they go on sale on June 3. 

In the previous season, the event was held in New York due to the global pandemic. Victoria Azarenka won the event in the women’s category and World No. 1 Novak Djokovic won the title in the men’s. It will be interesting to see if he can defend his title or no. All eyes will be on the top players competing for the biggest of prizes.
