The Regions Morgan Keegan Championships 2011 was a tennis tournament that took place in Memphis from February 14-20, 2011 . It was part of the ATP World Tour 2011 and was played indoors on a hard court. In the same week, the Open 13 was played in Marseille and the Copa Claro in Buenos Aires .

Sam Querrey was the defending champion in the singles, but he was eliminated in the quarterfinals that year. In the final, top seeded Andy Roddick prevailed against Milos Raonic in a close three-set match . It was his third triumph in Memphis (after 2002 and 2009) and his 30th career title overall. Sam Querrey also competed in doubles together with John Isner as defending champion, but they were eliminated in the second round. Here too, Max Mirny and Daniel Nestor won the first place, who won against Eric Butorac and Jean-Julien Rojer in the final . This was their first joint title, but Nestor had won the Memphis tournament in 1996 and 2003 with other partners.
