Welcome to the Lexus Eastbourne Open!

On behalf of the LTA, I’d like to offer a very warm welcome to you all. The tournament facilities at Devonshire Park continue to improve and we hope you like the expansion of the player areas that are on offer this year.

You might also be pleased to hear that the restaurant voucher prize draw that was introduced last year to celebrate the 50th anniversary is going to continue, providing more winning opportunities!

Myself and my team are here to help you have the best week you can and prepare successfully for Wimbledon.

Our Player Services Team of Debbie Ormston, Sophie Stevens, Huw David and Max Beech are on hand for anything you need during your stay.

I look forward to seeing you in Eastbourne!

Rebecca James
Tournament Director
