A can’t-miss exhibition doubles match featuring Andre Agassi and John Isner going head-to-head against Andy Roddick and Mardy Fish will headline Community Day at the Cincinnati Open on Saturday, Aug. 10 at 2 p.m.

Another Cincinnati Open winner, 2004 champion Lindsay Davenport, will serve as the match’s chair umpire while fellow Hall of Fame member Stefanie Graf will provide courtside commentary for this special kick-off to the 2024 tournament as it celebrates its 125th anniversary.

Community Day at the Cincinnati Open will benefit local charities while giving fans early access to the tournament grounds for this match, player practice sessions, special events and more. Tickets range from $10-$50 and are on sale now with proceeds benefiting Cincinnati Children’s.

Other events planned for Cincinnati Open’s Community Day include yoga, a HIIT workout, cardio tennis, a Taste the Tournament food and drink experience, live music and a first opportunity to purchase the tournament’s new Cincinnati Open merchandise, including commemorative 125th anniversary gear. In addition to getting up-close-and-personal at practice sessions, attendees will also have the opportunity to interact with players at autograph signings and will be the first to know the tournament matchups by attending the making of the draw.

The exhibition doubles match features a foursome that combined to win 89 matches during their careers at the Cincinnati Open.

A three-time Cincinnati Open champion, Agassi won a total of 60 titles in his career, including eight at Grand Slam tournaments. The 1996 Olympic gold medalist, he spent 101 weeks ranked No. 1.
