Public Transportation

MARTA bus route 180 takes you to Roosevelt Highway, just 0.3 miles from South Fulton tennis center. Ubers and Lyft are also available as needed.

Nearby

Looking for a quick place to stop? For restaurants and hotels, College Park and Union City are closest cities. A less than 10 minute drive lands you at Wal-Mart, Kroger and various fast food locations.  

Go right out of the center (Roosevelt Highway) for quick access to a Shell gas station. There’s also a Publix about 10 minutes away (5.9 miles). But keep in mind we’ll have food offered throughout the day and South Fulton offers plenty of space to lounge around.

After Matches

Woofs, Atlanta’s only gay sports bar, recently opened a new location in Midtown. They’ll have the US Open on the TVs and Woofs is offering all players 10% off their bill over Labor Day Weekend. And most bars stay open late on Sunday since it’s a holiday weekend.

Other non-tennis activities to consider:

  • Rent a scooter down the Beltline and enjoy bars and restaurants
  • Visit a rooftop for sunset (Ponce City Market and Clermont Lounge have great roofs)

Or simply enjoy a night on the town at a local gay bar or restaurant, including many sponsors below:
