Tournament
Event Overview
The Odlum Brown VanOpen, a Tennis Canada Event, is the largest and most celebrated Men’s and Women’s professional tennis tournament in Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. In 2022, the tournament returned bigger than ever after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic with an upgrade to a combined ATP Challenger Tour 125 and WTA 125 event. The tournament is on hiatus for 2023 and 2024 while our host venue Hollyburn Country Club is under renovation. Unfortunately, we have been unable to find an alternate venue to host the tournament in the meantime.
In 2022, the tournament showcased approximately 135 professional tennis stars from all over the world. The event was a combined purse of over $274,360 USD, with $159,360 USD awarded to the men (ATP Challenger Tour) and $115,000 awarded to the women (WTA Tour).
The venue for the Odlum Brown VanOpen is the spectacular Hollyburn Country Club, set against the dramatic backdrop of the North Shore Mountains in West Vancouver, BC. Milos Raonic, Maria Sharapova, Andy Murray, Leylah Fernandez, Johanna Konta, Kevin Anderson, Eugenie Bouchard, Vasek Pospisil, Marion Bartoli, Felix Auger-Aliassime, Bianca Andreescu, Taylor Fritz, Naomi Osaka and Karolina Pliskova are among the top stars who began their careers at the Odlum Brown VanOpen.
