Review 1 for Citi Open

This was my second year attending the event, last year being the Legg Mason Classic. Rock Creek Park Tennis Center is a great way to see multiple matches. The food is good, but quite expensive. The parking is also a bit haphazard, but they had everything in order and the shuttle service was very efficient.

First off, many players did not participate in this tournament this year, in order to prepare/participate in the Olympics. With most of the top players missing, the stadium was emptier than typical.
Fitzgerald is a good tennis stadium. Shuttles are a convenient alternative to paying for iffy parking. Tennis was excellent. Their rules say "no jugs" which I guess allows plastic bottles, as I brought in water and other drinks.
Only downside was it rained a little and the courts took long to dry (they just let the courts soak in the water). The second time it rained hard so most people, including myself, left. The delay ended up lasting a couple hours. There really isn't much cover from the rain and not much to do while under cover.

There was an impending storm comming on Sunday and there did not seem to be sufficient coverage for spectators. We were at the mercy of taking the shuttle to the parking garage and felt it was best to leave before the storm came. I feel the ticket price was very high to have missed out on the final men's match.
Parking/shuttle provisions were excellent. It made it very easy to get to the venue. The shuttle was timely and well staffed. Great provision.

As an out of town visitor I appreciated the ease of getting to the event due to the the complimentary parking and free shuttle. Everyone working the event was friendly, including the vendors. My seat turned out to a completely obstructed view, not previously disclosed. I went to the ticket office, showed them a photo of the view. They apologized and very graciously upgraded my seat to a court side box. One of the players was very nice in posing for an on the spot photo with a couple of fans.

We had a wonderful time at the CitiOpen. Although the weather was not helpful, the venue was very nice and accomodating. We went out to dinner and returned for the balance of the Finals match. We are pleased we went back to see it through.

Maybe it was my own fault, but we didn't realize the doubles finals were first and the singles finals were much later. Also, the venue could use a lot more seating and shaded areas. It was pretty sad people were camping out pretty much any place they could- on the curb, in the shade of port-a-potties, etc.

I've been to this event for years. When it was Legg Mason it was a great event and even the few changes that Citi has made this year since taking over has made it even more enjoyable. I love the fact that I can see some big names right here in DC (this year was a little more sparse due to the Olympics) and the fact that the WTA is being brought in makes it even greater!
I love that they've made another grandstand court!

Great tournament, even with the Olympics going on. Good tennis (it's great seeing established marque players and up and coming stars up-close), great atmosphere and wonderful staff working the tournament, and good seats all around! And thanks for the shuttle to the Metro. It made getting to the venue much easier. Suggestion: More healthy food options! (Too much is fried; particularly not desirable in the DC heat!)

citi open early rounds were fun when it wasnt raining--shuttle from UDC metro was a great feature. Grandstand courts were great place to watch womens tennis--you were close to players--could even hear the coaches when they came out to talk. (also the complaints especially Rezai). Saw some great play and (of course) some not so great play by all players.
tennis schedule was not cool--no women on stadium court--Wed. Vania King and Coco playing same time. Next year put women on stadium (at least once per day).
tickets and food very overpriced.

Having been a long time attendee, I can honestly say that the CitiOpen is a tremendous improvement over the LeggMason, which wasn't too shabby I should add.
With the combined ATP and WTA format; additional courts; improved lighting; and fan-friendly environment (box seat flex-seating in the Main Stadium, which isn't the case with Arther Ashe Stadium, Queens, NY), I would highly recommend this event to anyone.
I can't wait until next year when the Olympics will be out of play, opening up the event to more top-ranked players - Serena and Venus do you hear me!?

Matches took place in the stadium, grandstand 1, and grandstand 2. The stadium was pretty empty. Most people grouped under the shaded seats at the stadium...and the grandstands seemed more crowded for some matches. Quality of tennis was great even though it was only qualifiers. I was happy to see the tournament staff prevent spectators from entering/exiting the courts unless during changeovers or time outs. I recommend trying out different seats if possible. Lower level side seats are good to see spin (but requires a lot of head movement to watch the match) and front row behind the baseline can be pretty exhilarating when a fast serve comes towards you.
One problem was it was extremely hot. The lack of a breeze and blazing sun did not help. I could only find one water fountain and it didn't work. Bottled water (drinks and food in general) were expensive. The positive was one stand was giving out free pouch drinks. Without those pouches, I probably would have spent $10 for two one liter bottles of water.
Second problem was the rain delay. They don't bother to cover the court so when it rained, it takes a while for them dry the court. Also, they should give an estimate of when the match will resume.
