Women’s tennis will return to the Queen’s Club for the first time since 1973 as the LTA confirmed that a new prominent event will kick off the grass court season in west London from 2025.

The new women’s event, a WTA 500 tournament, will be held at Queen’s, an iconic tennis club in Baron’s Court in the week after the French Open, the first of the three-week grass court season preceding Wimbledon. The event will be immediately followed by the annual ATP 500 event at Queen’s, which will remain in its usual spot.
