History
River Oaks was the venue for the Western Open golf tournament in 1940, and the Houston Open in 1946.
Around 1993, River Oaks and some other area country clubs began claiming a new tax break. That same year, an article in the Houston Post alleged that even though River Oaks and two other area country clubs had bylaws stating that membership was open to people of all races, they covertly discriminated against blacks.
On May 8, 2007, the United States Tennis Association announced that River Oaks would host the U.S. Men's Clay Court Championships starting in 2008, taking over the event from Westside Tennis Club. Other cities that competed for the event were Atlanta, Georgia; Winston-Salem, North Carolina; and Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. The tournament pays out US$415,000, with the winner receiving US$65,850.
The new venue was to feature American red clay courts that were installed in 2005, with a stadium capacity of 3,000. Temporary seating for 500 was to be installed for the second court.
As of 2010, River Oaks had a waiting list of applicants for membership.
