Newport Casino Invitational

Newport Casino Invitational

The Newport Casino Invitational tennis tournament began in 1915 when the US championships, which had been held in Newport, Rhode Island since 1881, moved to Forest Hills, New York. Since its inception, with a field of fifty players, it consistently attracted the best of the US contingent of tennis players and many high profile international contenders as well.[1] With the advent of the open era in 1968 the Newport Casino Invitational ended though there were pro tournaments held at the same venue with the modified Van Alen Streamlined Scoring System (VASSS).[2]
