The US Open expanded to 15 days this year, and for the first time in the opening era, which began in 1968, it shifted to Sunday start.
The fans who subscribed to the USTA ticket information were informed of the change of the last grand slam tennis tournament in the season. The US Tennis Association has confirmed the additional date of the 2025 tournament tournament in the news release.
On the extra day, the United States has switched from Monday to Sunday to Sunday a year ago, and the French Open, the first major tennis major when the 15th day in 2006 was added. Open.
The first round at Flushing Medows will spread over three days on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, but otherwise, the USTA will “No more adjustment of the singles main dries schedule after the first round.” I mentioned. In the old 14 -day format, the tournament has completed the opening round for three days until 2015.
This movement begins on Monday and leaves Wimbledon as the last grand slam event that takes action in just 14 days. At present, the English tournament is long, as the English club has been added to Mid Sunday in 2022. Before that, it was a traditional day off, and I played only 13 days of tennis major.
Switching the US Open can increase profits through ticket sales and increase sports exposure. For example, the opening of Australia, which has been concluded, has set a record record on both 15 -day versions.
USTA stated that the top event had a “record attendant in 2024”.
Now, players are used to the start of Sunday in slums, but when France was opened, some Roger Federer and Maria Sharapova, who played on the first Sunday of 2006, loved switches. It was a vocal about nothing.
“I asked if I could play later. The answer was that you were playing the fourth match on Sundays,” Sharapova said at the time.
“How did you feel me? Well, when the French Federation knows only to sell tickets, make money, and sell (French) players, that makes you feel better. There is no, “she said. “In other words, I can't be very happy about it.”
