US Open Tennis 2008
25th Aug- 7th Sep 2008
Arthur Ashe Stadium
The U.S. Open tennis tournament is the fourth and final event of the Grand Slam tennis tournaments. It is held annually in August and September over a two-week period (the weeks before and after Labor Day weekend).
The main tournament consists of five championships: men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles, with additional tournaments for senior, junior, and wheelchair players.
Since 1978, the tournament has been played on acrylic hard court at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in the Queens borough of New York City. The complex was renamed after King during the 2006 U.S. Open. King is a pioneer in women's tennis and the founder of the Women's Tennis Association(WTA), the Women's Sports Foundation and World Team Tennis (WTT), which she founded with her former husband, Larry King.
The US Open differs from the other 3 Grand Slam tournaments in that there are final-set tiebreaks. In the other three majors, the fifth set for the men and the third set for the women continue until someone wins by two games.
