Jointly organised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF), the Vietnam Tennis Federation (VTF), and the Ninh Binh provincial People’s Committee, the tournament attracted 200 players from nearly 20 countries and territories.
According to the organisers, this international event offered local players a valuable opportunity to hone their skills, boost their confidence, and improve their rankings both nationally and globally.
Beyond its sporting significance, the tournament aimed to promote tennis development in Ninh Binh and raise awareness of the province's rich cultural and natural heritage among domestic and international visitors.
Ninh Binh, a popular tourist destination, was a filming location for the Hollywood blockbuster "Kong: Skull Island". It is also home to the Trang An Landscape Complex, a UNESCO-recognised World Cultural and Natural Heritage Site. The tournament coincided with the 3rd Ninh Binh Festival 2024, themed “Heritage Flow”.
