Chicago Open is a summer tournament held annually at the University of Chicago, generally occurring in the last week of July or first week of August. Its most recent edition was edited by Ryan Westbrook.
The first Chicago Open was held in 1999 and was the successor to the Virginia Open, a similar tournament held at Virginia in 1997 and 1998.
A true open tournament, Chicago Open attracts current college players, retired or graduated players, and, increasingly, ambitious high school players. Participants generally play on mixed teams not limited by school affiliation.
Chicago Open typically occurs alongside several side events, including a Trash tournament and subject tournaments in science, history, and literature.
