July 4th weekend

USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center

In 1993, MTG created the Liberty Open, thereby officially joining the Gay and Lesbian Tennis Alliance (GLTA) circuit. The GLTA manages and sanctions an international coalition of tennis tournaments.

Each July 4th holiday, the Liberty Open is played at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, home to the US Open. Players from across the US and from around the world come to experience the courts where tennis greats Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Justine Henin and Andy Roddick have played. This invitational is open to all tennis enthusiasts!

The Liberty Open offers extensive divisions of competition, proudly including a full complement of women’s and mixed doubles events.

Strengthening our dedication and commitment to the community, MTG and the Liberty Open committee each year donate the proceeds from the tournament to a charitable organization. Some of our past designated recipients include God Loves We Deliver, GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network), and the Hetrick Martin Institute.
