About China Open

China Open: Beijing's hard-court anchor of the Asian autumn

Founded in 2004 and played at the National Tennis Center in Beijing, the China Open grew into the centerpiece of the autumn Asian hard-court swing, occupying the calendar from late September into mid-October. It runs a combined ATP-WTA field on outdoor hard courts — the same surface family as its regional neighbors, the Shanghai Masters, the Wuhan Open and the smaller Ningbo Open. The WTA's designation of the women's event at the 1000 level gives that draw its full weight, while the men's side carries the points and prize money of a marquee tour stop late in the season.

What distinguishes Beijing is its position in the calendar rather than any surface quirk: it's the first big payday of the Asian fall, the reset point after the US Open hardcourts and before the indoor European finale. The Diamond Court's fast, true bounce rewards first-strike tennis, and the two-week combined format keeps both tours in the same building — a scale most autumn events can't match.

The recent honor roll skews to the women's draw's biggest names. Iga Swiatek took the 2023 title, before Coco Gauff opened a Beijing run of her own — she beat Karolina Muchova for the 2024 crown. Amanda Anisimova edged Linda Noskova across three sets in 2025, and Gauff returned to lift the 2026 trophy, the second of her career here.

That makes Gauff the defining current champion of the event, her two titles in three editions the closest thing Beijing has to a modern dynasty. With the men's field headlined by Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, the China Open enters the 2026 edition as the heavyweight gateway to the season's closing stretch.
