In 1924, after the completion of the West Side Tennis Club Stadium, the championship returned to Forest Hills, and was held there through 1977, when it moved to the<br />
USTA’s new tennis complex at Flushing Meadows, N.Y. National Championships of the United States Tennis Association were provided for when that body was organized,<br />
May 21, 1881. The first championship of the United States under uniform conditions, open to all comers and sanctioned by the National Association, was held at The<br />
Casino, Newport, R.I., in August 1881, and for 34 years thereafter without interruption.<br />
Before 1890, the national doubles championship was played in conjunction with the singles tournament. From 1890 to 1906 tournaments were held in the East and<br />
West, and the sectional winners at these meets then played off for the privilege of meeting the standing-out champions in the challenge round. The 1918 championship<br />
was a playing-through tournament, the sectional and preliminary doubles and the challenge round having been done away with. In 1919 the plan of the qualifying sectional<br />
winners was restored, although an exception was made in the case of the Australian teams on a visit to the United States at that time, and the last challege round<br />
in national doubles was played that year. Since 1920 there have been few changes.<br />
