The Stuttgart Open[a] (sponsored since 2022 by Hugo Boss and called the BOSS Open) is an ATP Tour 250 series professional tennis tournament on the ATP Tour. From 1970 to 1989, the Stuttgart Open was a Grand Prix tennis circuit event. From 1990 to 1999, the Stuttgart Open was an ATP Championship Series tournament. The Championship Series name was changed to ATP International Series Gold in 2000, and the Stuttgart Open was a part of this series from 2000–2001 and 2003–2008. In 2002, the Stuttgart Open was briefly demoted for one year to ATP International Series status, which was renamed to the ATP Tour 250 in 2009, and it has retained the classification ever since.
Held since 1916 in Stuttgart, Germany, prior to the beginning of World War II the tournament was known as the Championships of Stuttgart.[1] Following the Second World War it was branded as the Stuttgart International Championships or the Stuttgart Weissenhof International.[1] The Stuttgart Open was played on clay up to and including 2014. Starting in 2015, the tournament is played on grass. Along with the move to grass courts, the tournament is now staged in the week after the French Open finishes.[2]
Under the sponsorship of Mercedes-Benz, the tournament champions were awarded a Mercedes car, in addition to the prize money.[3]

Overview
Tournament details
The Stuttgart Open, officially known as the BOSS Open since 2022 under sponsorship by Hugo Boss, is a professional men's tennis tournament classified in the ATP 250 category.[1][6] It has held ATP 250 status since 2009, following periods as an ATP 500 event from 1990 to 2001 and 2003 to 2008, and as a Grand Prix circuit tournament from 1970 to 1989.[7] The event is held annually in June on outdoor grass courts, a surface adopted in 2015 after being played on clay through 2014.[8] This change aligned with the ATP's expansion of the pre-Wimbledon grass-court schedule.[8] The 2025 edition takes place from June 9 to 15, offering total prize money of €751,630.[2] The singles competition features a 28-player main draw, including 8 seeds and 4 qualifiers, while the doubles event includes 16 teams.[9][8]Categories and format
The Stuttgart Open is open to players ranked on the ATP Tour, with entry determined by their current standings. The singles event features a main draw of 28 players, including four qualifiers who advance from a separate qualifying tournament, and all matches are contested in a best-of-three sets format. Tiebreaks are employed at 6-6 in every set to decide the outcome.[8][10] In doubles, the competition consists of a 16-team main draw, also played as best-of-three sets, with no-ad scoring introduced in the final set under the ATP's 2006 rule change aimed at shortening match durations. A 10-point match tiebreak replaces a full third set if necessary, further streamlining play. Ranking points are awarded based on performance, with the singles champion earning 250 points, the finalist 165, semifinalists 100, quarterfinalists 50, second-round (round of 16) participants 25, and first-round losers 1 point; the doubles distribution mirrors this scale, capping at 250 for the winning team.[10][11][12] Qualifying rounds for singles occur immediately prior to the main draw, typically over the preceding weekend, providing opportunities for players outside the direct acceptance list to compete. Up to four wild cards are available for the singles main draw, commonly allocated to German players or rising international talents to enhance local engagement and support emerging careers. The grass surface fosters a fast-paced game characterized by serve dominance, influencing tactical approaches throughout the event.[10][8]History
Origins and early development
The Stuttgart Open traces its roots to 1898, with the modern iteration established in 1916 as the International Weissenhof Tournament, an international tennis event held on clay courts at the newly opened Tennis Club Weissenhof in Germany.[1][8] The tournament quickly became a key fixture for regional players, emphasizing baseline rallies suited to the red clay surface, though it was primarily contested by national and European competitors in its initial years.[8] The event faced significant disruptions due to the two World Wars, with no editions held between 1917 and 1948 amid the conflicts and their aftermath.[13] It resumed in 1949 under the name Stuttgart International Championships, marking the post-war revival of organized tennis in the region and focusing once again on clay-court play at local venues before solidifying its base at Weissenhof. Werner Breuthner claimed the inaugural post-war singles title that year, defeating Otto Fürst in the final.[13] Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, the tournament was held annually, gradually elevating its status within the European tennis circuit by attracting a mix of German and international talent, including baseline specialists who thrived on the clay.[7] The Tennis Club Weissenhof served as its longstanding home from the outset, providing a stable venue that supported the event's growth amid the era's amateur-dominated landscape. By the late 1960s, it had established itself as a respected stop for developing players. The tournament transitioned toward the professional era in 1970.[1]ATP Tour integration and modern era
The Stuttgart Open integrated into the professional tennis landscape in 1970, aligning with the Open Era and initially operating as an independent event before formally joining the Men's Grand Prix circuit in 1978.[7][1] This period marked the tournament's transition from amateur roots to a key stop on the evolving ATP schedule, attracting top players and establishing its reputation in European tennis. By 1990, it was elevated to the ATP Championship Series—equivalent to the modern ATP 500 level—offering 500 ranking points and underscoring its growing prestige within the tour's tiered structure.[7][1] Sponsorship played a pivotal role in the tournament's modern identity, particularly through its long association with Mercedes-Benz, the automotive giant headquartered near Stuttgart. From 1979 to 2021, the event was known as the Mercedes Cup, with winners receiving a Mercedes car alongside prize money, symbolizing the region's industrial heritage and boosting the tournament's allure.[7][1][14] In 2009, amid ATP Tour restructuring, the event was downgraded to ATP 250 status, reducing its points allocation but maintaining its competitive edge.[1][7] The turn of the decade brought further evolution: in 2022, following the end of the Mercedes sponsorship, it rebranded as the BOSS Open under Hugo Boss, a German fashion house, continuing its tradition of corporate partnerships tied to national industry.[1][15] A significant shift occurred in 2015 when the tournament changed from clay to grass courts, timed to coincide with the Halle Open's upgrade to ATP 500 status and an expanded pre-Wimbledon grass-court window following the French Open.[1][7][16] This move addressed a calendar gap, providing players with an additional high-quality grass event for Wimbledon preparation while leveraging Germany's strong grass-court tradition. The tournament was cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2025 edition, the 47th since joining the ATP Tour in 1978, exemplified this modern era under the BOSS Open banner, drawing elite competitors and reinforcing its role as a vital ATP 250 stop.[1][15][8] The pre-grass era highlighted the dominance of clay-court specialists, with Rafael Nadal securing three titles in 2005, 2007, and—remarkably—the inaugural grass edition in 2015, adapting seamlessly to the surface change and becoming the first player to win on both substrates at the event.[17][18] This period underscored the tournament's adaptability, bridging clay-era legacies with its contemporary grass-court focus.Venue
Location and club history
The Tennis Club Weissenhof is situated at Parlerstraße 102, 70192 Stuttgart, Germany, in the Killesberg district, with coordinates 48°47′46″N 9°10′08″E.[19] Positioned near the city center amid green surroundings, the venue is readily accessible via Stuttgart's public transport network, including nearby U-Bahn and bus lines.[20] The club traces its origins to 1894, when it was established as the Stuttgarter Lawn-Tennis-Club; it relocated to its current Killesberg site in 1914 and was subsequently renamed Tennis Club Weissenhof.[21] With around 1,000 members, it ranks among Germany's largest and most traditional tennis clubs.[21] The facility has hosted the Stuttgart Open—known historically as the International Weissenhof Tournament—since 1916, establishing it as the event's permanent home.[1] Prior to the ATP Tour era, the club served as a key site for significant tennis events in Germany, including multiple Davis Cup ties such as the 2011 World Group quarterfinal between Germany and France.[22] It also hosted national championships and other domestic competitions, contributing to its legacy in German tennis.[23] The venue accommodates approximately 6,000 spectators across its stands, fostering an intimate atmosphere that enhances the spectator experience during matches.[24] In 2015, the club introduced grass courts to align with the tournament's shift to a grass surface.[16]Facilities and courts
The Tennis Club Weissenhof serves as the primary venue for the Stuttgart Open, featuring a Center Court known as Weissenhof Court with a seating capacity of approximately 6,500 spectators. This main show court offers an intimate atmosphere with panoramic views of Stuttgart's Killesberg district, accommodating the majority of tournament matches during the event. Since 2015, the court has utilized a grass surface to align with the ATP Tour's grass-court season, marking a significant shift from the previous clay setup.[25][1] In addition to the Center Court, the venue provides five grass courts in total for the tournament, including two outer courts that host early-round matches and practice sessions. These courts ensure efficient scheduling for the ATP 250 event, allowing players to acclimate to the grass surface early in the week following the French Open. The grass installation in 2015 involved comprehensive renovations to adapt the facilities to the European climate, including enhanced maintenance infrastructure for optimal play conditions.[1][16] A media center facilitates broadcasts and press operations, equipped with modern production facilities to cover the tournament's proceedings.[26] These features contribute to a professional environment tailored for elite-level grass-court tennis. Sustainability initiatives at the club incorporate solar panels for renewable energy generation, rainwater harvesting for irrigation, and comprehensive recycling programs, reflecting eco-friendly practices adopted in the 2010s to minimize environmental impact. These measures align with broader efforts in European sports venues to promote green operations during events like the Stuttgart Open.[27]Past champions and finals
Singles
The singles competition at the Stuttgart Open has been a cornerstone of the tournament since its early editions. Originally contested on clay courts, the event emphasized endurance and baseline rallies, producing champions like multiple-time winner Rafael Nadal, who secured three titles across both surfaces. The shift to grass in 2015 transformed the dynamics, promoting aggressive serving and quick points, as exemplified by the 2025 champion's undefeated set record in the tournament.[4][28] Pre-ATP highlights include the 1949 edition, where Werner Breuthner claimed the title against local competition, marking the post-war revival of the event at the Tennis Club Weissenhof, though detailed scores from that era are scarce.[13] The following table summarizes key singles finals results, focusing on the era from 1968 onward, with complete outcomes where available; earlier years prior to 1968 featured sporadic international play dominated by European players.

Doubles
The doubles event at the Stuttgart Open has been contested since 1916, though detailed records for pre-1970 editions are limited. In the post-World War II period, local German players were prominent before international expansion.[8] Since joining the ATP Tour in 1978, the doubles competition has featured a 16-team draw, with a super tiebreak to 10 points introduced for the deciding set starting in 2006 to expedite matches on grass.[8] The shift to grass courts in 2015 has amplified the role of powerful serves and volleys in doubles play, favoring teams with strong net skills.[2] The following table summarizes the doubles finals results from 1978 onward, when comprehensive ATP records began:| Year | Champions | Runners-up | Score |
