2026 WTA China Open
September 30 – October 11 CST

Since 2004, the world’s top women have gathered in Beijing for the China Open, a WTA 1000 tournament played on outdoor hard courts. Each year, 96 singles players and 32 doubles teams compete for 1,000 valuable ranking points and the chance to claim one of the sport’s most prestigious titles—joining a champion’s roll that includes legends like Serena Williams, Iga Swiatek, and 2024 winner Coco Gauff. The event has called the China National Tennis Center home since 2009, where its iconic Diamond Court—with a capacity of 15,000—provides a spectacular stage for the world’s best.
The China Open is co-hosted by the General Administration of Sport of China, the Beijing Municipal People’s Government, and China Media Group (CMG). As the only tennis event in the country bearing the nation’s name, it stands as Asia’s largest and most prestigious comprehensive international tennis tournament—offering the highest prize money and drawing the greatest number of participants across the continent. The women’s competition is a WTA 1000 mandatory event, representing the pinnacle of the WTA Tour, while the men’s tournament is China’s sole ATP 500 stop. On the junior side, the event features the ITF J300, the country’s top-tier junior championship. In 2026, the China Open expands even further with the addition of the ITF MT400, a distinguished international amateur tennis Masters event—broadening the tournament’s competitive landscape and welcoming everyone from elite professionals to passionate amateurs from around the globe. Collectively, these components have cemented the China Open’s status as a nationally recognized brand event.
