The USTA Pro Circuit women’s event in Vancouver, Canada, the Odlum Brown VanOpen presented by Invesco, will increase its prize money from $75,000 to $100,000 this year. The prize money increase now reflects equal prize money for men and women, as the Odlum Brown VanOpen hosts a concurrent $100,000 men’s event.

 

Vancouver now becomes the second $100,000 event on the women’s USTA Pro Circuit Calendar, joining Midland, Michigan.

The 2011 Odlum Brown VanOpen presented by Invesco will be held the week of August 1. For full details, visit the Odlum Brown VanOpen web site at www.vanopen.com or www.procircuit.usta.com.
