The history of

Championships ATP 500 - Love Fifteen Experience

The Queen's Club Championships, now known as the LTA Championships, is the oldest grass court tournament in the world still played at its original venue. Founded in 1886 in West Kensington, it has served as the traditional warm-up to Wimbledon for well over a century. The roll call of champions reads like a who's who of tennis: from the Renshaw twins in the Victorian era to Murray, Djokovic, and Alcaraz in the modern game.

1886

The Queen's Club Championships are born in West Kensington.

West Kensington, 1886: a club born within earshot of the omnibus, and already hosting champions.

The Queen's Club opened its doors in 1886, founded by a group of sporting enthusiasts who wanted a multi-purpose venue in London. Named after Queen Victoria, who became its patron, the club hosted its first lawn tennis championships that same year. William Renshaw, the dominant player of the era, won the inaugural singles title. The venue, tucked into the residential streets of West Kensington, was unlike anything else in British sport: 28 outdoor courts and a covered real tennis court, all within earshot of the Hammersmith omnibus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Andy MurrayFive-time Queen's Club champion

I love playing at Queen's. The grass is always in perfect condition and the crowd is right on top of you. It's a special place to play tennis.

Rafael Nadal2008 Queen's Club champion

Through the 1890s, the Championships grew in stature alongside the club itself. Queen's became a proving ground for players preparing for Wimbledon, which had been running since 1877. The intimate setting and immaculate grass courts attracted the best players in the country. The tournament also hosted women's occasions during this period, reflecting the club's unusually progressive approach to the sport.

1953

The BBC begins televising matches from Queen's Club.

Before Wimbledon claimed the nation's attention, Queen's Club was already in Britain's living rooms.

Television arrived at Queen's in the early 1950s, with the BBC broadcasting matches and bringing the tournament to a national audience for the first time. The coverage cemented the tournament's role as the curtain-raiser to Wimbledon in the British sporting calendar. Viewers could now watch the world's best players fine-tune their grass court games in the leafy surroundings of West Kensington, a fortnight before the All England Club took centre stage.

1968

The Open Era transforms Queen's into a truly international tournament.

When the Open Era arrived in 1968, the world's finest professionals followed, making Queen's the undisputed dress rehearsal for Wimbledon.

When tennis entered the Open Era in 1968, allowing professionals to compete alongside amateurs, Queen's was transformed overnight. The tournament attracted the biggest names in the global game. Players like Rod Laver, John McEnroe, and Jimmy Connors all competed at the club, drawn by the quality of the grass and the proximity to Wimbledon. The tournament's reputation as the definitive Wimbledon warm-up was now firmly established.

1979

John McEnroe wins the first of his four Queen's titles.

Four titles, one love affair; McEnroe made Queen's his personal grass-court kingdom across six unforgettable summers.

John McEnroe claimed his first Queen's Club title in 1979, beginning a love affair with the tournament that would see him win four singles titles (1979, 1981, 1982, 1984). His serve-and-volley game was perfectly suited to the fast grass courts, and his fiery temperament made for compelling viewing in the intimate setting. McEnroe's dominance during this period helped elevate Queen's to one of the most prestigious occasions on the men's tour outside the Grand Slams.

2009

Queen's is upgraded to ATP World Tour 500 status.

Nadal arrived at Queen's for the first time in 2009 and left as champion; the tour's new 500 status had announced itself immediately.

In 2009, the ATP restructured its tour and Queen's was elevated to ATP World Tour 500 status, reflecting its importance in the calendar. The upgrade meant more ranking points, bigger prize money, and a stronger field. Rafael Nadal won the title that year on his first appearance, beating Lleyton Hewitt in the final. The tournament's draw of 32 players now regularly featured multiple top-ten players, making it one of the strongest non-Masters showcases in the sport.

2015

Andy Murray wins his record fifth Queen's Club title.

Five Queen's titles; more than McEnroe, more than Becker, and all the confirmation Murray ever needed before heading to Wimbledon.

Andy Murray claimed his fifth Queen's Club title in 2016, surpassing the records of McEnroe and Boris Becker to become the most successful player in the tournament's modern history. Murray's connection with the occasion ran deep; he used it as his launchpad for Wimbledon success, winning Queen's in 2013 before his historic Wimbledon triumph weeks later. His five titles (2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2016) made him the undisputed king of Queen's in the Open Era.

2025

The tournament is rebranded as the LTA Championships.

122 editions in, and the grass court season still starts here.

The tournament entered a new chapter in 2025, rebranded as the LTA Championships while remaining at its spiritual home of Queen's Club. Carlos Alcaraz, the reigning champion, headlined a field that underlined the occasion's enduring appeal to the world's best players. Now in its 122nd edition, the tournament continues to occupy its unique position in the tennis calendar: the week where the grass court season truly begins, and where Wimbledon form is forged.
