Every spring, it’s an absolute honor to be invited back as the official photographer of the Credit One Charleston Open!
Since 1973, the Charleston Open has been a pioneer in women’s professional sports, creating milestones that have directly influenced the popularity of women’s professional tennis. It was the first women’s tennis event to offer $100,000 in prize money. The tournament was the first women’s event to be broadcast on network television. More recently, the Credit One Charleston Open was named WTA 500 Tournament of the Year. Kicking off the clay season, it’s grown to be the largest women’s professional tennis tournament in North America.
Day 6 saw the sunshine come back for a BEAUTIFUL day of tennis! Many of the players had to play twice in one day, due to the rain delays from the day before. So there was a ton of tennis action to cover!!! Plus we had the friendly Media Pickleball Tournament, more appearances at the Tennis Channel desk, the Volunteer of the Year Award, and the Dunlop “Glow Night”. What a fun day!
