Terra Wortmann Open 2026, where to watch and live stream

The Terra Wortmann Open runs in Halle, Germany from 15–21 Jun, played on fast natural grass. Bounce sits lower than on any other tour surface and points run shorter, which puts a premium on the serve and the forecourt. It is an ATP 500 / WTA 500, a second-tier event that helps shape the seedings around the next Slam. The singles champion takes 500 ranking points, and a serious slice of the season prize pool.

Play starts in 39 days, on Monday 15 June, with the main draw running through to Sunday 21 June.

The Terra Wortmann Open at the Gerry Weber Stadion plays on the heaviest, lushest grass on tour. Indoor seating around three sides of the show court means wind is a non-factor, and the green-painted boards on the back walls make the ball easy to track even from the upper bowl. The grass is cut slightly longer than at Wimbledon, which lifts the bounce a touch and gives a topspin baseliner a fighting chance against the bigger servers. Roger Federer won ten titles here. Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev have all taken titles in the last three years, which says enough about how the surface plays for the modern game.

The 500-level points and the timing in late June make Halle a near-mandatory stop for any contender who has not booked a deep run at Roland Garros. Best-of-three throughout, generally pleasant 22 to 26C weather, and the highest-quality grass outside SW19 mean the seeds rarely lose early here. The retractable roof gets used more often than the brochure suggests, and matches under the closed roof play noticeably slower than those held in open conditions.
