Credit One Stadium, tennis venue in Charleston, SC, USA
Credit One Stadium is a tennis venue in Charleston, South Carolina, featuring both hard courts and grass courts used to host professional tournaments. The main stadium has covered seating, while the outer courts have open spectator areas arranged around the playing surface.
The venue traces its origins to the 1970s, when it hosted the Family Circle Cup, one of the leading women's professional tennis tournaments of that era. Over the following decades, the event changed sponsors and names several times, but the site in Charleston remained its home throughout.
During tournament week, the grounds draw tennis fans from across the region who move freely between the outer courts and the main stadium, giving the visit a relaxed, social feel. Watching matches on the smaller courts, where the stands are close to the action, is a favorite habit among returning visitors.
The grounds are easy to walk during tournament events, with signage pointing toward the different courts and seating areas. Since most of the space is outdoors, it is worth bringing sun protection and staying hydrated, especially during warm spring days.
Credit One Stadium is one of the very few tennis centers in North America that still maintains active grass courts for professional play. Grass is a rare surface in professional tennis outside of the United Kingdom, which makes this venue stand out on the tour calendar.
