The ATP 250 Bastad Open is next on the calendar. As is traditional, the tournament will be played on clay courts from July 14th to 20th, 2025, the week after Wimbledon.
This event marks the final week for ATP clay-court tournaments, bringing an end to the European clay season before the tour moves to the North American hardcourts. Without any Top-10 stars, the draw is wide open, promising potential surprises from the many clay-court specialists.
The defending champion is Nuno Borges, who famously defeated none other than Rafael Nadal in the 2024 final—which was Nadal's last final appearance. The Portuguese player will be the fifth seed and one of six Top-40 players participating in the tournament.
The winner will seal €90,675. Finalist claims €52,890. While semi-finalists receive €31,090.
For losing in the Quarter-Finals, it is €18,015. The first round losers claim €6,390. 250 points for the winner and 165 points for the losing finalist.

Where to Watch
As ever with ATP 250 tournaments, it is shown worldwide on a number of channels including in the US on Tennis Channel.
In the UK, it will be Sky Sports who show the event albeit it is at broadcaster discretion often what is shown over the coming days.
Samuel Gill, Head Editor for TennisUpToDate.com sees it as quite an easy conundrum to conquer this week.
Francisco Cerundolo is the class of the field and there was a reason that he lead the ATP tour for wins earlier in the year.
That was his prowess in these kind of tournaments which Alexander Zverev for instance tried to enter to become World No.1. He swiftly found out that in reality, it isn't as easy to conquer them as he expected.
Him and Sebastian Baez should lead the way in reality and I expect either to win.
