The US Open showcases the climactic finale for the most treasured of tennis achievements, the Grand Slam. The West Side featured the greatest players in tennis history. The 1920’s and 1930’s saw greats such as Bill Tilden, Bill Johnston, and Helen Wills Moody. After World War II, many dynamic champions showcased their talent and tenacity: Pancho Gonzalez, Lew Hoad, Ken Rosewall, Rod Laver, Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Vitas Gerulaitis on the men’s side, and Maureen Connolly, Althea Gibson, Margaret Court, Billie Jean King, Virginia Wade, Chris Evert, Tracy Austin and Martina Navratilova for the women. The National/Open saw some of its biggest moments and changes while at West Side, including the introduction of seedings in 1927, the first US Open in 1968, tiebreakers in 1970, equal prize money for men and women in 1973, and night play in 1975. The Challenge Round of the Davis Cup was held at West Side ten times, more than any other venue.
