How to get tickets to this year's Rothesay Eastbourne International tennis
Want to get tickets to the Eastbourne International? It's first come first serve.
The grass court tennis season is nearly upon us, and each year it includes five major tournaments across the UK. The first is the Rothesay Open Nottingham, then you have the Rothesay Classic Birmingham, the Queen’s Club Championships, and the Eastbourne International, all finally leading up to the Wimbledon Grand Slam.
Today, we’re dealing with the second to last serve of the grass court season: the Eastbourne International, now known as the Rothesay International Eastbourne tennis tournament.
Seeing as you’re here, we de-deuce you know a little bit about this competition already – but just in case, here’s what you need to know.
Taking place in the last week of June, the Eastbourne International sets up shop in East Sussex every year for a week-long battle of men’s, women’s, and doubles matches. The men’s competition is part of the ATP Tour 250 series, while the women’s is part of the WTA 500.
Each year the players are vying to win the prize money of €100,000+ (£87,000+) by making it through the various stages.
Like Queen’s, Eastbourne is often thought of as a warm-up for Wimbledon that will show the up-and-coming stars in the tennis world.
In its 49 years of play (with its first year being 1974), the tournament has seen the likes of Novak Djokovic, Andy Roddick and Billie Jean King pass through. In fact, the most successful Eastbourne winner of all time was Martina Navratilova, who won 11 singles titles from 1978 to 1993.
Last year, the men’s final was won by Francisco Cerúndolo and the women’s by Madison Keys, but who will take the trophy this time around? Here’s how you can find out.
