Cincinnati Open Campus to Undergo $260 Million Renovation
The Cincinnati Open, a prestigious tennis tournament with a rich 125-year history, is set to undergo a transformative $260 million renovation ahead of its expanded 2025 edition. The entire Lindner Family Tennis Center campus will be reimagined to enhance the fan and player experience.
The centerpiece of the renovation is a new sunken stadium court, which will accommodate 2,000 spectators and become the fourth largest permanent stadium on the campus. This addition will increase the tournament's capacity and facilitate its expansion to a 96-player draw over 12 days.
For players, a state-of-the-art two-story player center will provide a luxurious and functional space. The 56,000 square-foot facility will feature lounge and restaurant areas, wellness and recovery rooms, and expanded locker rooms. The existing player facilities will also be upgraded.
The campus will also boast a new six-court indoor facility, six pickleball courts, and two padel courts. Center Court and Grandstand Court will receive a modern metal panel ribbon facade, creating a cohesive and visually appealing campus.
The renovation aims to create a "park-like feel" throughout the grounds, with increased green space, trees, and a fresh color palette. The design incorporates regional building materials and honors the tournament's history through art and iconography.
"We are ushering in a new era at the Cincinnati Open," said Bob Moran, President of Beemok Sports & Entertainment. "These projects will create an unparalleled experience for our fans and players, and build upon the storied history of this event."
