What's at stake in 2026

As a 500-level event, the winner takes home 500 ranking points. These tournaments fill the gaps between the Masters and 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, tactically neutral. In Merida form, fitness and serve quality usually decide who goes deep, more than any quirk of the surface.
