The annual U.S. Open is the oldest currently running table tennis tournament in the United States.[1] It attracts over 600 athletes annually.[2] The first events were actually run by either the New York Table Tennis Club or the American Ping Pong Association. The first USA Table Tennis (USTTA)[3] tournament was held in 1934.
The U.S. Open has been previously held in various locations, including Anaheim, California; Charlotte, North Carolina; ; Las Vegas, Nevada; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Grand Rapids, Michigan;[4] [5] and Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[6]
Due to its international nature, most events are played under International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) rules and at times the tournament has been included as an ITTF Pro Tour / World Tour event.
