About the Queen’s Club Championships
Technically known as the Cinch Championships after its current sponsor, the brand of tonic (a deal which underlines the well-heeled, boozy image of the tournament), the grass-court event is more usually referred to by the name of its iconic venue – Queen’s Club.
The tournament was first played in 1881 at Stamford Bridge, Fulham, before being moved to Queen’s Club in 1890, where it has remained ever since. The pristine grass courts and brick frontage of the tennis club in Baron’s Court, west London have become an intrinsic, if seemingly unlikely, cornerstone of the grass-court season.
The tournament has been played at Queen’s Club every year since 1890, with the exception of 1915-18 (First World War), 1940-5 (Second World War), 1974-6 and 2020 (global coronavirus pandemic). From 1979 until 2008, the tournament was sponsored until Stella Artois, then by Aegon from 2009 until 2017. Fever-Tree took over as title sponsor in 2018 and the tournament is now known as the Fever-Tree Championships.
Until 2014, the Queen’s Club tournament was held the week after the French Open. An extra week of grass-court tennis was added to the schedule to widen the gap between the French Open and Wimbledon. In 2015, the tournament was upgraded from an ATP Tour 250 to an ATP 500 event.
The biggest men’s grass-court event to be held in the UK, and the joint-biggest ATP Tour grass-court event, Queen’s Club is a key Wimbledon warm-up and form indicator (in addition to being a valuable and prestigious title in its own right, with 500 ranking points going to the winner). Twenty-two of the past 25 Wimbledon champions have played at the Queen’s Club Championships at some point in their career, and since 1981, seven players have won Queen’s and Wimbledon in the same year:
- John McEnroe (1981, 1984)
- Jimmy Connors (1982)
- Boris Becker (1985)
- Pete Sampras (1995, 1999)
- Lleyton Hewitt (2002)
- Rafael Nadal (2008)
- Andy Murray (2013, 2016)
Since the beginning of the Open Era in 1969, Queen’s Club has counted some of the biggest names in men’s tennis history among its champions, including Rod Laver (1970); Jimmy Connors (1972, 1982-3); Ivan Lendl (1989-90); Stefan Edberg (1991) and Pete Sampras (1995, 1999).
Four players have established powerful dynasties at Queen’s Club, each winning the title four times. John McEnroe fell short on his first attempt, finishing runner-up to Tony Roche in 1978, but went on to win in 1979-81 and 1984. Boris Becker won the title three times between 1985 and 1988, but did not manage to capture his fourth title until 1996.
From 2000-7, the tournament was the exclusive property of Australia’s Lleyton Hewitt and the USA’s Andy Roddick, who each won the title four times during that timespan. Rafael Nadal ended the pair’s dominance in 2008 when he beat Novak Djokovic in the final, going on to win his first Wimbledon title after defeating Roger Federer in what is popularly known as the greatest match of all time a few weeks later.
In 2009, Queen’s Club saw the man who would become its greatest champion lift the trophy for the first time when Andy Murray beat James Blake in the final. Murray went on to win Queen’s Club in 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2016, amassing a record total of five titles. He also teamed up with Feliciano Lopez to win the men’s doubles title in 2019; Lopez took the singles title to boot, his second. Marin Cilic has also won Queen’s Club twice in the past decade.
