The Entry List has been confirmed for the Hamburg Ladies Open which is due to take place between July 14-20, 2025 and sees a return to clay for a short period after Wimbledon.
It was founded in 2021 bringing back tennis to the Am Rothenbaum. Contested on outdoor clay courts, it features 32 singles players with up to 10,000 fans in attendance.
Being a WTA 250 also post Wimbledon, it suffers slightly in terms of uptake from top names with Yulia Putintseva leading the way in regards to seeds. But there will be a heavy home contingent including German No.1, Eva Lys.
As well as Queen's champion Tatjana Maria who will be involved. Arantxa Rus will also return after winning the title last year. She defeated Noma Noha Akugue who is not yet entered but presumably may receive a wildcard after her wonder run.

Previous winners have also included Bernarda Pera and Elena-Gabriela Ruse on the tournament being established on the WTA Calendar. It was also a focal point last year towards the Olympics but unlike last year, there isn't that gap for this event needed.
Many will shift their focus onto the US hard court swing instead of returning to clay. The Citi DC Open for instance is played in the week after. It also sits as the only clay court tournament alongside the Iasi Open on the WTA Tour that week. Action also shifts to Prague the week after.
It then heads to Montreal, Cincinnati and Flushing Meadows so it has a bit of a thankless task on the schedule compared to other tournaments of a similar ilk.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
