Predictions Stuttgart Open 2026
Samuel Gill, Head Editor for TennisUpToDate sees Alexander Zverev winning if he plays.
Alexander Zverev for me if he doesn't win Roland Garros. Otherwise I see Alexander Bublik or Flavio Cobolli taking it.
Many of the others are in too awful form including Shelton and Fritz. Learner Tien also is a pick.
While I'm intrigued about Nick Kyrgios return but won't pick him to win.
*** Alexander Zverev
** Alexander Bublik, Flavio Cobolli
Alexander Zverev in Madrid
Lucas Michael, Editor for TennisUpToDate.com sees Tommy Paul winning the title.
The grass swing for many starts in Germany at the Stuttgart Open. A number of top players will be hoping to make the transition from clay to grass with no issues as another ATP title is on the line.
Whether Alexander Zverev competes or not on home soil is something to keep an eye on. His deep run at Roland Garros may leave him tired and wanting to prioritise other tournaments coming up like Wimbledon.
For Taylor Fritz, it is business time. While a lack of game time is worrying, he is brilliant on grass. Two titles, including this one last year, backed up by a semi-final at Wimbledon summed up a fantastic period on grass in 2026. However, those points are on the line, and he is under pressure to defend them.
For Shelton, his clay swing did not go to plan, aside from the one tournament he played in Germany. The Munich Open champion will be a contender for sure with Alexander Bublik eyeing up another ATP 250 title to add to his collection. He does blow hot and cold, making he weary about picking him.
For what I wrote about Zverev goes for Flavio Cobolli and Frances Tiafoe as well. In fact, I will be surprised to see either of them compete. A possible outsider for the title could be my pick to win it, Tommy Paul. He was excellent last year before injury halted his progress and again I feel like he could make an impact on a surface he is good on.
*** Tommy Paul
** Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton
* Alexander Bublik, Jiri Lehecka, Learner Tien
Cristhian Avila, Editor for TennisUpToDate.com sees Alexander Bublik winning the title.
Alexander Bublik is one of the names I expect to see performing well during this grass swing. He arrives as the fourth seed and, after a clay swing without major results, the return to grass courts could be very good news for the two-time Halle Open champion. I expect the Kazakh to go deep into the tournament and contend for the title.
World No. 3 Alexander Zverev is also an automatic contender in practically any tournament he enters, even though his results on grass have not yet been especially notable.
Czech star Jiri Lehecka has the quality to think about making a deep run on grass courts and will have big ambitions considering he is firmly in the battle to break into the Top 10. Tommy Paul and Learner Tien are the Americans I have the most confidence in right now on a surface as complicated as grass, and I believe both can go far in Stuttgart.

- Mirra's very funny words have been in my head since yesterday. "If I win the car I have 5 people in my box that can drive me around. I will forever be a passenger princess. I have a plan..." And I will never forget how she had me rolling on the floor laughing when asked how she beat Jess Pegula so handily: "I don't know what happened; It must have been the Diva in me". CLASSIC STUFF !
mandoist15-11-2026 - Can whomever has a microphone in the Final... PLEASE STOP YAMMERING ABOUT YOURSELVES NONSTOP THROUGHOUT THE MATCH???? Get a grip and STFU once in awhile so we can 'hear' the actual play on court.mandoist15-11-2026
- Martina is one of the most competent, knowledgeable, and 99.999% correct in her analysis. Most of all -- WHILE A COMMENTATOR IN MATCHES SHE KNOWS WHEN NOT TO TALK AND DISTRACT FROM THE ACTION !!! Someone please pass that idea on to Austin, Shriver, and whoever else has been f-ing YAPPING throughout the play. How thoughtless and elitist can these people be squawking nonstop throughout an entire game about themselves. STFU, please (I said "please"). Let us 'hear' the game play on court.mandoist15-11-2026
- Tennis "fans" have short memories. This is exactly who Saba always was... granted she found a 'new' persona when she began winning matches and tourneys. Off-court she's always been a racist potty-mouth. Her meanness also shines through when she thinks no one else is around. In short, the "person" you've witnessed in post-match on-court interviews is NOT who she is. As for her familiar "apologies, she can stick that routine in her racquet bags because I never believed her words nor phony "respect" for her opponents -- and I ain't buying that now.mandoist15-11-2026
- Was Saba not paying attention to those who sought an inordinate amount of attention outside of their sport (occupation)... and to the point they lost their focus and eventually their place in tennis? For example: Giorgi, Bouchard, Raducanu, etc. They became infatuated with endless Selfies, videos, podcasts, TV commercials, magazine shoots, and so on. Thus their tennis suffered. Priorities are important.mandoist14-11-2026
- I, like writer of this wonderful article, also picked Noskova to win this entire thing. I would love it if she and Andreeva are in the final.Rapunzel12-11-2026
- "Priorities", Saba... spend less time in front of cameras, anti-Social Media, selfies and back to Tennis.mandoist12-11-2026
- Tell this to Andreeva!mandoist12-11-2026
- Andreeva with 11 games in a row to add to Saba's downward spiral issue !!! Personal feelings aside... Jess Pegula may want to reassess her evaluation of Mirra's abilities.mandoist12-11-2026
- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
