BB&T Atlanta Open History

The sanction for the BB&T Atlanta Open was originally purchased by USTA Southern and the USTA from the ATP World Tour on December 17, 2009. The 250-point tournament had been played in Indianapolis beginning in 1921. After a successful completion of the BB&T Atlanta Open in August 2015, GF Sports, LLC, a newly formed integrated event content company, formed by the New York-based financial management company GF Capital Private Equity Fund, and its founder Gary Fuhrman, along with long time sports executive, Jerry Solomon and his Lynnfield-based company, StarGames, acquired the tournament.
