The Merida Open returns to Merida, Mexico for its 2026 edition, played from 23 Feb – 1 Mar on Hard.

What's at stake

As a 500-level event, the winner takes home 500 ranking points. These tournaments fill the gaps between the Masters/Slams and are where players rebuild form, defend points, or run up an early-season title streak.

The 2026 edition of the Merida Open has wrapped. The recap, full results and dates for the 2027 edition are below.

The conditions

Hard court is the global default — medium-paced, true-bouncing, and tactically neutral. Form, fitness and serve quality usually decide who goes deep here, more than surface preference.

Hard-court specialists and the very top seeds tend to dominate events of this kind. The week’s pace and bounce will favour those who arrive with rhythm — watch the warm-up events on the same surface for an early read on form.
