Cerity Partners Hall of Fame Open (Newport)
Cerity Partners Hall of Fame Open (Newport) takes place Early Jul 2027, dates to be confirmed (2026 edition ran Jul 6 - 12) in Newport, Rhode Island, USA. The dress code is Preppy New England lawn attire: whites, linen, summer dresses, boat shoes. No enforced code, but the setting invites the effort. Typical cost ranges from 300 to 1800 EUR per person.
The only professional grass-court tournament in the Americas, played on the lawns of the International Tennis Hall of Fame inside Newport's Gilded Age casino building. Shingle-style Victorian architecture, white-clad players and a few hundred spectators in deckchairs make it feel like tennis a century ago. It now runs as an ATP Challenger 125 alongside a WTA 125 event rather than a full ATP 250, which keeps it small and affordable.

How to attend
Open to the public. Tickets sell through the official site and grounds admission includes access to the Hall of Fame museum. Reserved lawn-side seating is limited and worth booking early because capacity is tiny. Newport is a scenic drive or seasonal ferry from Providence and Boston; combine the tennis with the Cliff Walk and the Bellevue Avenue mansions.
Insider tip
Grounds admission includes the International Tennis Hall of Fame museum, so a cheap day ticket buys both live grass-court tennis and the sport's best archive in one visit.
