Italian Open History and Winners

The Italian Open, previously called the Italian Open Championships, held its inaugural edition 93 years ago in 1930. Back then, it was held in Milan at the Tennis Club. The tournament stayed in Milan for a year more years until 1934 as the following year the event moved to the Foro Italico in Rome, it’s current home. It would move one last time again, being held in Turin for the 1961 edition. Following the advent of the Open Era, the tournament was part of the Grand Priz Tennis Tour.

The woman’s Italian Open competition was usually held alongside the men’s but in 1979, the men’s competition was held 2 weeks prior. It shifted twice, once in Perugia for a  few years, then to Taranto. 1987 onwards, it has been held alongside the male competition. The most recent change to the event has to be its upgrade from a week-long event, to one played across 2 weeks, similar to the Indian Wells and Miami Masters.
