The USTA Foundation, Tiger Woods’ TGR Foundation, the Walt Disney Company, philanthropist Doug Kimmelman and the Karsh Family Foundation have committed $50 million to support the construction of the Carson, Calif.-based Carol Kimmelman Athletic and Academic Campus. The facility will be one of the largest sports complexes in the country, with plans for a 40-court tennis facility, basketball courts, full-sized soccer fields, track and field areas and fitness space for community use. A focal point, however, will be the learning complex — focused on STEM education and intended to complement the public school curriculum. The project will be completed in phases, but construction is expected to begin prior to the end of 2020, with the goal of beginning to operate in 2021. — USTA.com
