Last week, Aronimink Golf Club proudly hosted some of the region's top tennis talent for the 27th annual Aronimink Open Tennis Championships. Despite a week of rain that forced some matches indoors at Aronimink and Radnor Racquet Club, the tournament culminated in a championship weekend blessed with perfect weather for the semifinals and finals across all six brackets.
The event was made even more memorable thanks to the generous support of esteemed sponsors and supporters, including Thrivest Link, Neal Bozentka DMD, PC, Graham Partners, Porsche of the Main Line, Lotus Philadelphia, Andrew Hocker, and Penn Beer.
A big congratulations to all the champions!
