LA Women's Tennis Championships

The LA Women's Tennis Championships was a Premier-level women's tennis tournament on the WTA Tour held in Carson, California, a suburb of Los Angeles.

The tournament was played on outdoor hard courts and a part of the US Open Series.

The event was off the tour calendar for three years (1974–1976) when the season-ending championships were played in Los Angeles.

The tournament was an indoor event until 1983, when it switched to outdoor hard courts in Manhattan Beach where it stayed for 20 years.
