The stadium was specially created to host the ATP World Tour Finals between 2005 and 2008, and was the largest tennis venue in Asia, until the construction of the Olympic Green Tennis Centre in Beijing. Since 2009 it has hosted the Shanghai Masters, an ATP Tour Masters 1000 tournament which began that year. It also served as one of the venues used for the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic during their tour of China in 2007.
