The WTA grass-court season is here, and the 2026 Berlin Open has the field to prove it.
Nine of the world's Top 10 players will compete at the Rot-Weiss Tennis Club from June 15th through June 21st, making it one of the strongest fields ahead of the Wimbledon Grand Slam.

World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka and No. 2 Elena Rybakina lead the 28-player singles draw as the top two seeds. No. 7 Coco Gauff joins them as she sharpens her game ahead of the All England Club.
Meanwhile, former Berlin champion Jessica Pegula and newly crowned French Open winner Mirra Andreeva add even more depth to the women's bracket. The official draw for the WTA tournament drops on Friday, June 12th.
But the singles draw isn't the only reason to watch the Berlin Open.
Serena Williams Returns for 2026 Berlin Open Doubles
Serena Williams accepted a wildcard entry to the 16-team doubles field alongside partner Karolina Muchova.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion recently returned to grass at Queen's Club. However, her doubles run was cut short when partner Victoria Mboko withdrew with a knee injury.
Mboko was also slated to compete at WTA Berlin 2026, but her status is still unknown.
With additional top-ranked players like No. 26 Madison Keys, No. 18 Sorana Cirstea, and No. 22 Elise Mertens also entering the draw, the Berlin Open provides a sneak peek of what's to come on at Wimbledon later this month.
