Cary, NC - The Cary Tennis Classic returns to Cary Tennis Park June 28 through July 5, welcoming top professional tennis players from around the world for a week of elite competition, community engagement, and charitable giving.

Now in its 12th year, the Cary Tennis Classic (CTC), formerly known as the Atlantic Tire Championships, will bring world-class professional tennis to one of the nation's premier public tennis facilities. The tournament features both a Men's ATP Challenger Tour 75 event and a Women's WTT 100 event, with top-ranked players from around the globe expected to compete.

Past competitors in Cary include ATP standouts Ben Shelton, Frances Tiafoe, Jack Sock, and Tommy Paul, underscoring the tournament's reputation as a launching pad for some of the sport's biggest names.
