. The tournament is played on outdoor hard courts at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows – Corona Park, New York City.
The US Open is played during a two-week period in late August and early September and has been chronologically the last of the four

The women's singles rules have undergone several changes since the first edition. From
phase, the All-Comers singles, whose winner faced the defending champion in a challenge round. The All-Comers winner was awarded the title six times (
) in the absence of the previous year's champion. The challenge round system was abolished with the
edition. Since 1887, all matches have been played as the best-of-three sets, except during 1891, 1892, 1894, and 1896–1901, when it was scored the best-of-five-sets. Before 1887, the winner of the next game at five-games–all took the set in every match except the All-Comers final and the challenge round, which was won by the player who had won at least six games and at least two games more than his opponent. This advantage format was introduced for the final sets of early rounds for women starting in 1887, and used for all sets in all rounds from 1887 through 1969. The tie-break system was introduced in 1970 for all sets, in its best-of-nine points sudden death version until 1974, and in its best-of-12 points lingering death version since 1975. The US Open is the only Grand Slam tournament to have a third set tie-break, which has occurred twice in women's singles finals in 1981 and in 1985.
The court surface changed twice, from grass (1887–1974), to Har-Tru clay (1975–1977), to hard courts since 1978. No women's tennis player won the event on all three surfaces, and no women's tennis player won it on both grass and Har-Tru clay.
was the only one to win the event on HarTru, and won on DecoTurf, as well, so she was the only one to win on two different surfaces at the event amongst the women.
The champion receives a full-size replica of the event's trophy engraved with her name. In 2010, the winner received prize money of US$1,700,000. A bonus pool of US$1,000,000 is also paid to US Open champions who finished in first place during the US Open Series.
In the U.S. National Championships, under the challenge round format,
(1896, 1901, 1903, 1905) holds the record for most singles titles with four and
(1909–1911) holds the record for most consecutive women's singles titles at three. With four consecutive singles titles each, Molla Bjurstedt Mallory (1915–1918) and
(1932–1935) hold the record for most consecutive women's singles titles won after the challenge round format was abolished. Bjurstedt Mallory's eight singles titles (1915–1918, 1920–1922, 1926) is the all-time record.
During the US Open, since the inclusion of the professional tennis players, Chris Evert (1975–1978) holds the record for most consecutive women's singles titles at four and the record for most overall titles at six (1975–1978, 1980, 1982).
This event has been won without losing a set during the open era by Margaret Court in 1969,
