FitzGerald Tennis Center in Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C. The event is categorized as an ATP 500 event on the ATP Tour and a WTA 500 event on the WTA Tour and is the only combined 500 event in the world.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.atptour.com/en/news/washington-2025-atp-500-history-draw-schedule|title=Mubadala Citi DC Open 2025: Draws, Dates, History & All You Need To Know|date=16 July 2025|website=ATPTour|access-date=July 25, 2025|archive-date=July 21, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250721181436/https://www.atptour.com/en/news/washington-2025-atp-500-history-draw-schedule|url-status=live}}</ref><ref> [https://www.mubadalacitidcopen.com/en/event-info/event-info Mubadala Citi DC Open EVENT INFO] </ref> The tournament is owned and managed by Mark Ein in partnership with IMG.

Organized annually in the summer schedule of events on North American hardcourts leading up to the US Open, the Washington Open was first held in 1969 as the '''Washington Star International'''. It was held on clay courts until 1986, when the surface was changed to hardcourts. In 2011, the event expanded to include its first women's tournament, a WTA International (now WTA 250) competition held in a separate venue in College Park, Maryland. The following year, the men's and women's events were consolidated at the Washington venue.

In 2023, the WTA 500-level Silicon Valley Classic was discontinued and merged with the Washington Open, forming the first joint-500-level event on the ATP and WTA tours.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Gerbo |first=George |date=2023-06-01 |title=D.C.'s Citi Open merging with Silicon Valley Classic to upgrade WTA event |url=https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jun/1/dcs-citi-open-merging-with-silicon-valley-classic-/ |access-date=2025-07-30 |website=The Washington Times |language=en-US |archive-date=September 1, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230901091806/https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jun/1/dcs-citi-open-merging-with-silicon-valley-classic-/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

==History== thumb|The tournament's center court The tournament was first held on the men's tour in 1969, known as the Washington Star International from 1969 to 1981, the Sovran Bank Classic from 1982 to 1992, the Newsweek Tennis Classic in 1993, the Legg Mason Tennis Classic from 1994 to 2011, and the Citi Open from 2012 to 2022. Competition was held on outdoor clay courts until 1986 when it switched to the current hard courts. Co-founders John A Harris and Donald Dell, founder of ProServ International, have since remained closely involved. The location of the event in Washington, D.C., was chosen at the urging of Arthur Ashe, an early supporter.

The women's event was first held in 2011 in College Park, Maryland, as the Citi Open, and for the 2012 season, the ATP and WTA decided to merge their Maryland and Washington spots into a joint tournament, with the women's event moving to the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center, and Citi replacing Legg Mason as title sponsor of the joint event.<ref>{{cite web|agency=Associated Press|url=https://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/7850738/legg-mason-classic-washington-dc-changes-name-citi-open |title=Legg Mason Classic in Washington, D.C. changes name to Citi Open – ESPN |publisher=ESPN Internet Ventures|date=2012-04-24 |access-date=2012-07-27}}</ref>

In 2015, the Washington Open dropped out of the US Open Series because of disagreements with ESPN, which that year took over broadcast rights to the US Open and US Open Series events. ESPN would not commit to air more than four hours of the tournament on its ESPN2 network; the remainer would be relegated to ESPN3 online streaming. (In 2014, coverage was split between ESPN and Tennis Channel.)<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.multichannel.com/news/tennis-espn2-serve-230-plus-us-open-series-hours-382724|title=Tennis, ESPN2 Serve Up 230-Plus U.S. Open Series Hours|last=Reynolds|first=Mike|website=Multichannel-us|date=July 24, 2014|access-date=2019-08-02|archive-date=August 11, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200811164917/https://www.multichannel.com/news/tennis-espn2-serve-230-plus-us-open-series-hours-382724|url-status=live}}</ref> Donald Dell criticized ESPN for using ESPN3 to acquire sports rights without any intent to broadcast them on television: "If you're running a tournament, and it's $2 million, and sponsorship money in the $6 million-to-$8 million range, you've got sponsors that don't want to be having only four or six hours on television." Citi Open organizers withdrew from the US Open Series so it could establish a new broadcast rights agreement with Tennis Channel. The four-year, $2.1 million deal included funding for additional amenities and 171 hours of television coverage.<ref>{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.si.com/tennis/2015/08/13/washington-dc-citi-open-separate-us-open-series-tennis-channel-espn-usta|title=Why DC's Citi Open separated from U.S. Open Series|last=Rothenberg|first=Ben|magazine=Sports Illustrated|date=August 13, 2015|access-date=2016-06-01|archive-date=May 21, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220521174103/https://www.si.com/tennis/2015/08/13/washington-dc-citi-open-separate-us-open-series-tennis-channel-espn-usta|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/en/Daily/Issues/2015/08/05/Events%20and%20Attractions/Citi%20Open.aspx|title=DC's Citi Open Bumped Out Of U.S. Open Series Due To TV Deal With Tennis Channel|website=Sports Business Daily|access-date=2019-04-03|archive-date=January 20, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210120235145/https://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/en/Daily/Issues/2015/08/05/Events%20and%20Attractions/Citi%20Open.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref>

In June 2023, Ein and IMG announced that the Washington Open would merge with the Silicon Valley Classic to form a single tournament in Washington, D.C.; this therefore promoted the Washington Open from a WTA 250 event to a WTA 500 event. Players had usually been divided between the two tournaments, as the Silicon Valley Classic was more prestigious, but the Washington Open was in closer proximity to the other tournaments of the North American hardcourt season. As a result of the merger, the Silicon Valley Classic's title sponsor Mubadala Investment Company became a co-title sponsor of the event, and the tournament was renamed the Mubadala Citi DC Open. The tournament is the first-ever joint 500-level event on the ATP and WTA tours, and remains the only joint 500 event in the world.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Wallace |first=Ava |date=2023-06-01 |title=D.C.'s Citi Open merges with Silicon Valley Classic to boost women's event |language=en-US |newspaper=Washington Post |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/06/01/citi-open-merger-silicon-valley-classic/ |access-date=2023-08-01 |issn=0190-8286}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=June 1, 2023 |title=San Jose moves to Washington D.C. to operate as Mubadala Citi DC Open |url=https://www.wtatennis.com/news/3523122/san-jose-moves-to-washington-d-c-to-operate-as-mubadala-citi-dc-open |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230608160607/https://www.wtatennis.com/news/3523122/san-jose-moves-to-washington-d-c-to-operate-as-mubadala-citi-dc-open |archive-date=June 8, 2023 |access-date=July 17, 2023 |publisher=Women's Tennis Association}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last1=Simon |first1=Alex |last2=Mastrodonato |first2=Jason |date=June 2, 2023 |title=Bay Area loses longtime women's tennis event as WTA moves to Washington, D.C. |work=The Mercury News |url=https://www.mercurynews.com/2023/06/01/bay-area-loses-annual-womens-tennis-event-as-wta-moves-to-washington-d-c/ |url-status=live |access-date=July 17, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230608162736/https://www.mercurynews.com/2023/06/01/bay-area-loses-annual-womens-tennis-event-as-wta-moves-to-washington-d-c/ |archive-date=June 8, 2023}}</ref>
