Credit One Charleston Open Announces 2026 DXC Pro-Am Benefiting Meeting Street Schools

Annual charity Pro-Am brings together tennis legends, WTA professionals and community leaders in support of Charleston students and education.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Credit One Charleston Open, North America’s largest women’s-only professional tennis tournament, will host the DXC Pro-Am benefiting the tournament’s official nonprofit partner, Meeting Street Schools, on Sunday, March 29 at LTP Daniel Island. The annual event, proudly supported by DXC Technology, a leading enterprise technology and innovation partner, raises critical funds to support Meeting Street Schools and its work empowering students and families through transformative education.

The DXC Pro-Am will support a new initiative focused on movement and its role in student health and learning at Meeting Street Schools. The program will pilot several components during the 2026–27 school year, including access to summer camps, before-school play clubs, fitness tracking and multiple recess periods throughout the day. The funding will help expand opportunities for students to stay active while supporting their overall well-being and development.

The DXC Pro-Am will feature teams of three competing in two on-court sessions followed by a private lunch. Participants will have the exclusive opportunity to play alongside and interact with some of tennis’s most recognizable names, including Emma Navarro, John Isner, Sam Querrey, Steve Johnson and Tracy Austin.

The Pro-Am has become a cornerstone philanthropic event of the Credit One Charleston Open, connecting corporate partners, community leaders and athletes in support of local education.

“The DXC Pro-Am is always a special part of tournament week because it brings together our partners, players and community in support of a cause that means so much to us,” said Bob Moran, President of Beemok Sports & Entertainment. “Meeting Street Schools is doing incredible work for students and families across Charleston, and we’re proud to use the platform of the Credit One Charleston Open to help raise awareness and support for their mission.”

DXC will also sponsor Meeting Street Schools field trips to the tournament, giving students the chance to experience world-class tennis in person.

“As a technology leader, DXC is committed to supporting strong, resilient communities,” said Ray August, President, DXC Insurance Software and Business Process Services. “We also believe in empowering and investing in the next generation of talent. The DXC Pro-Am reflects that commitment by bringing together our partners and the local community to support Meeting Street Schools and expand educational opportunity across the Charleston region.”

The 2026 Credit One Charleston Open will take place March 28 – April 5, 2026, at Credit One Stadium, welcoming more than 90,000 fans annually and showcasing the world’s top women’s tennis talent.

As the kickoff event of the WTA Tour’s clay season, the Credit One Charleston Open is held annually at Credit One Stadium and was named WTA 500 Tournament of the Year in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. In April, Credit One Bank extended its title partnership through 2031 and announced the tournament will offer $2.5 million in equal prize money beginning in 2026, marking a significant milestone for the event. The increase reflects the bank’s commitment to advancing investment and opportunity in women’s sports and further positions Charleston as a leader on the WTA Tour Driven by Mercedes-Benz. With this move, the Credit One Charleston Open became the first standalone WTA 500 tournament to voluntarily raise prize money.

The Credit One Charleston Open has been a pioneer in women’s professional sports since 1973, paving the way for female tennis players to receive equal recognition, respect and compensation in the sport. The tournament has a long history of breaking new ground in tennis, having been the first women’s tennis event to offer $100,000 in prize money in 1973 and the first to be broadcast live on network television. The inaugural champion, Rosie Casals, received a check for $30,000, which was the largest prize money payout awarded to a woman that year.Originally held on Hilton Head Island, the event relocated to Charleston in 2001 and is now played at the LTP Daniel Island tennis center, home to Credit One Stadium.

Charleston Tennis, LLC, which manages Credit One Stadium under a lease from the City of Charleston, renovated and modernized the 20-year-old facility in 2022. The city-owned venue underwent upgrades to enhance the stadium experience for patrons, performers, tennis players and event management, allowing the venue to attract world-class athletes and talent to Daniel Island.
