The tennis tournament is open to players of all ages and ability from six-year olds to sixty-year olds. It is second only to Wimbledon in size, attracting thousands of competitors every August. The tournament celebrated its centenary in 2022, a year after the actual date due to the Coronavirus epidemic.
