The Toray Pan Pacific Open (Japanese: パン・パシフィックオープン), sponsored by Toray Industries, is a WTA 500 outdoor hardcourt tennis tournament held annually in Japan.[1] Since the beginning, the tournament has taken place in Tokyo except once (2019), when it was held in Osaka. It is a WTA 500 tournament since 2022.[2]
History
[edit]The tournament was first held in 1973 as the Toray Sillook Championships. In 1976, the name was changed to the Sillook Open in Tokyo.[3] In 1982 it was renamed the TV Open[4] and in 1983, it changed yet again to the Queens Grand Prix.[5] Its current name, the Pan Pacific Open, was designated in 1984 and had traditionally been played on indoor carpet at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium.[6] In 2008, the event moved to outdoor hardcourts at the Ariake Tennis Park.[7]
It was classified as a Tier I tournament from 1993 through 2008. Then, it became a Premier 5 tournament in 2009 until it was downgraded to a Premier event from the 2014 edition onwards, with the Wuhan Open in Wuhan, China acting as its replacement in the Premier category. Martina Hingis holds the record for most singles titles with five.
