Английская Википедия:2021 Volvo Car Open
The 2021 Charleston Open (branded as the 2021 Volvo Car Open for sponsorship reasons) was a women's professional tennis tournament played on outdoor clay courts at the Family Circle Tennis Center on Daniel Island in Charleston, South Carolina. It was the 48th edition of the event on the WTA Tour and was classified as a WTA 500 tournament on the 2021 WTA Tour. For 2021, it and the 2021 MUSC Health Women's Open held consecutively at the same facility[1] were the only events of the annual tour's clay court season to be played on green clay. The 2021 edition of the event was the last to be sponsored by Chinese automaker Geely, the owner of Volvo Cars.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and local health guidelines impacting the facility's construction timeline, tournament organizers held the event behind closed doors for the second consecutive year after the preceding year's exhibition tournament was held under similar conditions. The main stadium was demolished in 2020 and tournament organizers had originally planned to host the event for up to 3,000 fans on a smaller temporary stadium on the secondary court, named the Althea Gibson Court.[2][3]
Veronika Kudermetova won her maiden career WTA title in the singles tournament.[4] Nicole Melichar and Demi Schuurs won their third title as a team in the doubles tournament.[5]
