The Women's Tennis Association Finals is not just coming back to the US for the first time in 20 years; it's coming to Fort Worth.
Crews have been working for more than 15 hours today converting the floor of Dickies Arena for the first time into a tennis court.
Coco Gauff and other stars of the sport will compete for big prize money, but businesses around the arena expect to rake in some extra money too anytime Dickies is open. "I love it. I live and work in the neighborhood and we kind of have to adjust to the traffic before and after the show, but as far as bringing the business to the neighborhood it's been great," Alford added.
Between 2019 and 2020, 370,174 visitors attended 70 events at Dickies. Between 2021 and 2022, the number of visitors is projected to hit 831,260 across about 146 events.
