thanks in part to the COVID lockdown, when millions of people picked up a racket and began watching matches, too.
And this tournament is also becoming an epicenter of cool.
To keep up with demand for higher-end offerings, the event's organizer, the United States Tennis Association, invested in major renovations to Arthur Ashe Stadium, the marquee venue for the tournament.
They've added thousands more court-level seats at premium prices and reduced mid-tier options.
And that has squeezed out fans looking for more affordable seats.
Fetterman said that the USTA has also been frustrated that the resale market has pushed up the price of tickets.
The tournament did make 1,000 tickets available to local residents for the much lower price of $100 each.
The USTA has pointed to other affordable opportunities for tennis watchers, like Fan Week, where patrons can get into the grounds and watch some of the action before the main draw starts.
But Futterman said it's not the same thing as getting to see the matches.
And if prices keep skyrocketing, it risks creating one tournament for the haves and one for the have-nots.
