The Greek International Championships, sometimes known as the Eastern Mediterranean Championships, was a tennis tournament held between 1931 and 1971.
History
Th event began in the inter-war period. The event was the Greek International Championships, but sometimes called the Eastern Mediterranean Championships. It was held in Athens typically in early September. Winners of the event included Gottfried von Cramm[1] (who won his first title in 1931 and his last in 1949), Jiro Sato,[1] Giorgio de Stefani,[1] Kho Sin-Kie,[1] Kurt Nielsen,[1] Sven Davidson[1] and Ulf Schmidt.[1] The event was held in the early open era, but was not part of the Grand Prix circuit, so it became defunct in the early 1970s, though there was an ATP event in Athens that began in 1986.
