==History==
The '''Canadian Open''', currently sponsored as '''Rogers Cup''', is an annual tennis tournament held in Canada. The men's competition is a Masters 1000 event on the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) tour. The women's competition is a Premier 5 tournament on the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) tour. The competition is played on outdoor hard courts. The events alternate from year to year between the cities of Montréal and Toronto. Since 1980 in odd-numbered years the men's tournament is held in Montréal, while the women's tournament is held in Toronto, and vice versa in even-numbered years. Before 2011, they were held during separate weeks in the July–August period, now the two competitions are held during the same week in August. The Toronto tournament is held at the Aviva Centre and the Montréal tournament is held at the IGA Stadium.
