Women’s tennis will return to the Queen’s Club for the first time since 1973 as the LTA confirmed that a prominent new event will begin the grass-court season in west London from 2025.

The WTA 500 tournament will be held at Queen’s, the famous club in Baron’s Court, in the week after the French Open, the first of the three-week grass-court season before Wimbledon. It will be immediately followed by the men’s ATP 500 event at Queen’s, remaining in its usual spot.
