- On Monday, the U.S. Tennis Association announced an $800 million renovation of Arthur Ashe Stadium located at the main tennis complex in Flushing Meadows.

- The renovation includes a $250 million player performance center, courtside seating increase from 3,000 to 5,000, a new grand entrance, two luxury suite levels, and expanded club and restaurant areas.
- USTA CEO Lew Sherr stated that the project will preserve Arthur Ashe Stadium, a premier tennis venue, and update it to serve fans and players effectively for the next quarter-century.
- The upgrades aim to preserve the stadium’s status as the largest Grand Slam arena with about 23,000 seats and complete by the 2027 U.S. Open without disrupting play or fan access.
