IN 2022, THE WTA IS COMING TO GRANBY
The inaugural edition of the Granby National Bank Championships will be held from August 20 to 28, 2022. This year will also see a big change for the tournament: the Championships will become the fourth tournament in the world to present a WTA 250 and an ATP Challenger event concurrently.
NATIONAL BANK, TITLE SPONSOR FOR THE NEXT DECADE
National Bank, title sponsor of the ATP 1000 and WTA 1000 events in Montréal and Toronto and official presenting partner of Challenger tournaments across Canada, is now the title sponsor of the WTA 250 competition in Granby. In 2022, the tournament will be renamed the Granby National Bank Championships until 2030. The business partnership, which is in addition to the many investments in the sport made by National Bank over the past few years, represents yet another contribution to further the development of Canadian tennis at all levels!

In 2011, a women’s ITF event was added to the men’s ATP Challenger. In 2022, the women’s competition becomes a WTA 250 tournament: the former National Bank Cup, which was presented for 26 years in Québec before it was handed over to an American promoter, is returning to Canada from August 20 to 28, 2022, ahead of the US Open.
