"Cleveland disappears from the calendar and the WTA announces which tournament will replace it in the summer"

Small unexpected change within the WTA 2026 calendar. The WTA 250 Cleveland, held for five seasons the week before the US Open, has lost its spot to make way for the WTA Memphis, which will return to the top world order after a 15-year absence in the women's category. The event will start on July 27, a change that has been well received on social media due to the fondness always held for this place within the sports entity.

WTA announced today that Memphis will return to the WTA Tour for the first time in almost 15 years.
WTA 250 Memphis Classic will take place the week of July 27 (replacing the Cleveland event which was due to be held in late August) and will be played on outdoor hard courts.
