Open venue in New York, finishing with WC Fields? (8,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flushing meadows

'open venue in new york' is the definition.
(venue for the US Open tennis tournament)

'finishing with wc fields?' is the wordplay.
'finishing with wc' becomes 'flushing' (flushing a toilet).
'fields?' becomes 'meadows' (I've seen this before).
'flushing'+'meadows'='FLUSHING MEADOWS'

I've seen this clue in The Times.
