10-15 Tennis Tournament logo

A one-day amateur singles tournament built on a pun and run like a real event — same date, same courts, same standard of play every single year.

10-15

It started as a way to consistently celebrate Tennis on the same day every Year - Ten-is, 10-15 - and turned into an annual fixture. Three years later the draw fills every fall.

Everything Here Is Run By Players, For Players: Honest Line Calls, Real Brackets, Live Scores You Enter Yourself, and a Trophy handed out to the last person standing!
