Winston-Salem Open + Ties to Wake Forest

From August 18-25 the Wake Forest Tennis complex will host the final stop in the US Open series. Every year players use this as a final tune up to try and get into form before the last major of the year, and this year they’ll try to in front of a crowd that will be energized as Wake Forest just took home not one, but TWO year end championships by winning both the team title as well as having Petros Chrysochos top Borna Gojo in the singles final.

I’ve worked a few tennis tournaments over the course of my years, and let me just start this by saying Tournament Director, and also Senior Associate Athletic Director for Wake Forest, Bill Oakes does an absolutely amazing job with this tournament, organizing and running it along with everything else pressing on his schedule.
