The Carson Challenger (also known as the USTA Player Development Classic and the USTA LA Tennis Open) was a tournament for professional female and male tennis players. The event on outdoor hardcourts was classified as a $50,000 ITF Women's Circuit tournament and was held in Carson, California in the United States from 2007 to 2011. In 2014, the tournament was a replacement for the Yakima Regional Hospital Challenger, as their clubhouse was destroyed by a fire earlier in the year.{{cite web|url=http://www.usta.com/Pro-Tennis/Pro-Circuit/carson_tournament_overview/|title=Carson tournament overview|work=USTA|date=July 1, 2014}} The event was also previously part of the ATP Challenger Tour, from 2005 to 2010, with the exception of 2006.
