The 1975 US Open was a tennis tournament that took place on the outdoor clay courts at the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills, Queens, in New York, United States. The tournament ran from 27 August until 7 September. It was the 95th staging of the US Open, and the fourth Grand Slam tennis event of 1975. During the final three years at the Forest Hills location, 1975-1977, the US Open was played on a green-colored Har-Tru clay surface, a surface slightly harder and faster than red clay. The switch came after player complaints about the poor state and uneven ball bounce on the grass courts in Forest Hills.[1]

Tennis legend Billie Jean King says tennis had the chance to emerge stronger from the health crisisTennis great Billie Jean King says the financial fallout from the coronavirus shutdown has exposed the unfairness of the sport.The Tour was suspended in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the shutdown will continue at least until mid-July, depriving lower-level players, who depend solely on playing tournaments, of the chance to earn a living.In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, Britain's Tara Moore and Georgia's Sofia Shapatava have spoken up for tennis' lower-ranked players,. The sport's governing bodies have joined forces to devise plans to provide relief and 12-times Grand Slam singles champion King said the sport had the chance to emerge stronger from the health crisis.' This is a good time to reset and to have one voice in the sport, which we really never had.
We need that desperately,' King told the Tennis Channel.' I hope they will all work together more after the COVID-19 situation calms down.'
Maybe some day, and I didn't think it is possible, we might have a commissioner. I don't know. We are not the biggest sport in the world, we don't have as much money as say soccer. So we need to stick together and everyone needs to help each other.'
The thing that's also good is it shows the inequities that go on. So this is a good time to reset and think about how we want our sport to look in the future. What can we do to make it better, stronger and more secure?' This is a really good chance to have a new normal for tennis.'
