In conjunction with federal, state and local authorities, we will have several important security measures in place at the US Open. All patrons will go through a screening process at the entry gates. There will be a limit of one bag per person admitted on to the grounds. All bags are subject to search and cannot be larger than 12"W x 12"H x 16"L. There will be no bag storage on the grounds. For a nominal charge, there is a bag storage facility outside the grounds. We recommend that ticketed fans allow extra time to enter the grounds. The existing policy of prohibiting knapsacks/backpacks, glass bottles or cans, coolers, video cameras/recording devices or any items deemed by management to be dangerous or inappropriate remains in effect. Most of the security measures being deployed will not be visible to fans. Rest assured, the US Open will be a safe, secure environment. For further information, visit: usopen.org
