The PTT Pattaya Open is one of the longest running tournaments on the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour for professional women tennis players. It was first held in 1991 and many famous players have graced the courts at the Dusit Thani, Pattaya including Anna Kournikova, Martina Hingis, Conchita Martinez and Patty Schnyder.
2009 opens a new chapter in the history of the tournament. As a result of widespread changes introduced by the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) the tournament has been upgraded to be part of the newly created international series with prize money raised to a minimum of US$220,000. Several improvements are being carried out to the venue including the construction of a 4th court at the Dusit Thani, Pattaya, improvements in the stadium capacity, lighting and an expansion of the facilities for players, press and officials. Practice courts at the Montien Hotel will also be upgraded to the new tournament standards.
The 2009 tournament will be held from 7- 15 February, with the qualifying rounds held on 7 – 9 February and the main draw starting from 9 February running through to the finals on 15 February. Main draw matches will start from 15.00 each day. A pre-qualifying tournament for wild cards into the qualifying round will be held in December as part of the “Star Search” programme.
