Shaded Seats on Center Court
- Find a seat on the West Side of the stadium 324-327 or 118-130. After about 2:00-3:00 pm you will have the sun to your back which makes watching the matches very nice. On the east side, according to the official website, the overhang covers up to row J in sections 314-318. Hence, rows J and higher in sections 314-18 are under cover and you have protection from sun and rain.
- The Center Court at the Lindner Family Tennis Center is divided into three different seating levels: The three levels are: The box level, the loge level, and the terrace level. The box level, the loge level and the first five rows of the terrace level are reserved exclusively for fans who are buying tickets for the entire tournament, not just one or a few sessions.
