The WTA has announced the return of professional women's tennis to Memphis, Tennessee, with the inaugural Memphis Classic set for July 25 to August 2, 2026. The WTA 250 event at Leftwich Tennis Center will feature a 32-player singles draw and 16-team doubles draw on outdoor hard courts, replacing the Cleveland tournament on the calendar. This marks the city's first WTA Tour event since 2013.
Following initial qualifying cancellations and subsequent delays, the Miami Open closed its main Stadium Court on March 18, 2026, due to heavy rain. Key round-of-128 matches, including João Fonseca vs. Fábián Marozsán, were rescheduled to March 19 as organizers prepare the court.
