Crandon Park Tennis Facility

Crandon Park has a rich history intertwined with the Miami Open, one of the world’s great tennis tournaments that was held there from 1987 to 2018. The efforts of Butch and Cliff Buchholz, along with Merrett Stierheim and others, led to the tournament’s relocation to this world-class facility that made Key Biscayne one of world’s most famous sites in tennis.  Crandon Park was the epicenter of the Miami Open, hosting world-class players and creating memorable moments in the sport’s history. Its eventual transition to the Hard Rock Stadium marked a significant chapter in the tournament’s evolution, signifying the growth and expansion of professional tennis in Florida.
