Bad Homburg Open

The WTA Bad Homburg Open is a WTA 250 tennis tournament that is played on outdoor grass courts in Bad Homburg, which is a small town near Frankfurt, Germany.

The inaugural tournament was due to be held in 2020 but this was delayed until 2021 for obvious reasons.

In 2023, the tournament will be held the week before the start of the Wimbledon Championships and will be used by many players as a warm-up tournament ahead of Wimbledon.
