Sponsoring
US OPEN
In the world of sports, athletes and timekeepers share a lot in common. That is why Citizen Watch Company proudly celebrates its 22nd year as the Official Timekeeper of the US Open Tennis Championships. Every year, the two weeks are reserved for the US Open Tennis Championships. This is the season-ending Grand Slam event in men’s and women’s professional tennis; it is the highest profile tennis tournament of the year. With court-side clocks tracking match time and stadium scoreboards to display match results, CITIZEN plays an integral role every year at the US Open Tennis Championships, and CITIZEN match time displays have recorded the match time of some of the longest Grand Slam matches in history.
We are also proud to be the official sponsor of Arthur Ashe Kid’s Day, as well as the Exclusive Timekeeper and Official Sponsor of the Western and Southern Open, and the Connecticut Open at Yale.
