The East West Bank Classic presented by Herbalife is a Tier II tennis tournament on the WTA Tour held in Carson, California, a suburb of Los Angeles. The 2008 event is being held from 21 July to 27 July. The tournament is played on outdoor hard courts.

The tournament started out on the inaugural Virginia Slims Tour in Long Beach, California in 1971. In 1973, it moved to Los Angeles. The event was off the tour calendar for three years (1974-1976) when the season-ending championships were played in Los Angeles. The tournament was an indoor event until 1983, when it switched to outdoor hard courts in Manhattan Beach. After 20 years there, the event was moved to its present location in Carson in 2003.

This tournament is a part of the United States Open Series.
