The U.S. Open, one of the most prestigious tennis tournaments, is set to undergo a significant change this year by expanding to 15 days. This shift marks the first time in the Open era, which began in 1968, that the tournament will commence on a Sunday. Fans who subscribed for ticket information from the USTA were notified of this change via emails sent on Wednesday, revealing the new dates for the season's final Grand Slam event as August 24 to September 7.
The USTA confirmed the extension of the main-draw action for the 2025 U.S. Open in a recent news release. This move aligns the tournament with other Grand Slam events like the Australian Open and the French Open, both of which have already adopted a 15-day format.
