Tennis tournament
The Mexican Open (currently sponsored by Telcel and HSBC and called the Abierto Mexicano Telcel presented by HSBC) is a professional tennis tournament played on outdoor hard courts , and usually held annually in late February and early March at the Arena GNP Seguros since 2022 and previously at the Fairmont Acapulco Princess , both in Acapulco , Mexico. It was played on outdoor red clay courts until 2013. The change to hard courts was introduced in 2014. The Mexican Open is part of the ATP Tour 500 series on the ATP Tour , and until 2020 was one of the WTA International tournaments on the WTA Tour .
The tournament was introduced on the ATP Tour in 1993, and began on the WTA Tour in 2001. It was held in Mexico City from 1993 to 1998, and once more in 2000, before being relocated to Acapulco in 2001. It was the closing leg of the four-ATP tournament Golden Swing . Starting in 2014, the Mexican Open's surface changed from clay to hard courts , serving as a lead-up to the first ATP Tour Masters 1000 event of the season in Indian Wells , United States. The winner traditionally receives a giant silver gourd trophy.
