The center features numerous outdoor hard courts, including a main stadium court, which provides an excellent setting for both players and spectators. The hard court surface is consistent with many top-level tournaments, offering a fast-paced game that tests the players’ all-around skills. The venue’s modern amenities and central location in the Las Vegas metropolitan area make it a fitting host for a tournament on the ATP Challenger Tour.
The Darling Tennis Center has a strong history of hosting both professional and amateur events. Its role as the venue for the Las Vegas Challenger since 2024 has solidified its place as a key location for tennis in the region. The tournament’s organization works closely with the United States Tennis Association (USTA) to ensure a high-quality experience for all participants, from the players to the local fans who come to watch rising stars and seasoned professionals compete.
History of the Tournament
The Las Vegas Challenger has a storied and somewhat intermittent history. The tournament was first established in the late 1990s and was held for several years before a hiatus. It was successfully revived in 2015 as part of the ATP Challenger Tour, providing a critical stop for players in North America. Since its return, the tournament has been held at different venues in the city, including the Frank and Vicki Fertitta Tennis Complex from 2015 to 2022, and more recently at the Darling Tennis Center.
The event was not held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and was also not on the calendar in 2023. Despite these interruptions, it has maintained its reputation as an important tournament for players looking to gain ranking points and break into the top tier of the sport. Past champions include well-known players who have gone on to have success on the ATP Tour. The 2024 singles champion was American Learner Tien, while the doubles title was won by the American pairing of Trey Hilderbrand and Alex Lawson.
