Concerns arose that the tournament, purchased by Beemok Capital in October 2022, would be relocated to newly constructed facilities in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Instead, the tournament stays in Ohio with a commitment to invest in facility improvements.
And in even bigger news, the tournament will become a 12-day event in 2025.
It currently is a nine-day tournament.
The addition of days will also usher in larger player draws.
Instead of 56 players, the singles draws will include 96 players.
These are beneficial and significant changes for a tournament that is beloved and strongly supported by a Midwestern fanbase.
