Profiles

The ASB Tennis Centre is a tennis facility located in the Parnell district of Auckland, New Zealand. The centre was founded in 1920 by Tennis Auckland. It hosts the ASB Classic for both men and women on consecutive weeks in January each year before the Australian Open. The centre is also a regular host of New Zealand Davis Cup team ties, including the 1975 and 1977 Eastern Zone finals. It is located on Stanley Street next to the Auckland Domain.

The centre has two Indoor Astrograss Tennis Courts, three Indoor Hardcourts and seven Outdoor Rebound Ace Courts, all with floodlighting. As well as tennis, the centre court is transformed after Heineken Open to host international beach volleyball tournament on the week after the Open.

The venue underwent redevelopment in 2010, adding advanced gym facilities, a rooftop swimming pool, several new practice courts, a player lounge and bar, a new permanent cross-court stand, and permanent seating year round. Plans were also made to add a retractable roof, but as of 2015 the roof project was awaiting government funding to proceed.
