NEW YORK CITY (WABC) — Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced that a batch of heavily discounted U.S. Open tickets will go on sale on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Mamdani and the U.S. Tennis Association say they’ve secured 1,000 tickets that will cost just $100.<\/p>\n

The mayor joked they will be ‘first come, first served,’ but was serious when he said too many New Yorkers are getting priced out of all of the fun.<\/p>\n

The tickets are for matches and grounds passes between August 30 and September 8.<\/p>\n

Only New York City residents with certified zip codes are eligible to buy the discounted tickets.<\/p>\n

“If the world’s best tennis players are coming to our city, New Yorkers should be able to see them play,” Mamdani said.<\/p>\n

They will go on sale at 10 a.m. on Wednesday at USOpen.org\/NYCTickets.<\/a><\/p>\n
