  • 7.–13. 6. Tenisové Kurty Slovana Bratislava Dotácia: 66 640 €
    7.–13. 6. tenisové kurty Slovana Bratislava Dotácia: 66 640 € Udržať sériu ATP je vždy výzva Hlavný organizátor bratislavského turnaja Branislav Stankovič udržal kontinuitu podujatia aj v čase pandémie. A to aj napriek rok trvajúcim obmedzeniam. Vlani sa turnaj Bratislava Open uskutočnil mimo challengerovej série ATP iba s domácou konkurenciou, tohto roku sa vracia tradičný medzinárodný formát. Kooperativa Bratislava Open sa uskutoční 7. – 13. júna 2021 na dvorcoch Slovana opäť ako súčasť série challengerov ATP. Bude to už 18. ročník podujatia pod taktovkou Stankoviča, ktorému pomáhajú Miloslav Mečíř a Marián Vajda, generační druhovia a priatelia z profesionálnych tenisových rokov. „Udržať turnaj v sérii ATP je vždy veľká výzva. Vlani sa nedalo cestovať pre koronavírus, ale vďaka partnerom sme usporiadali turnaj pre našich najlepších tenistov a po prvý raz aj pre ženy. Teraz sme v neistote čakali aká bude epidemická situácia. Vo februári padlo rozhodnutie, že sa challenger Kooperativa Bratislava Open uskutoční,“ popisuje kľúčový čas pre definitívu Branislav Stankovič. Pôvodne sa v Bratislave malo hrať v termíne po Roland Garros. Pravda, štart grandslamového turnaja posunuli pre zlú epidemickú situáciu vo Francúzsku o týždeň. Uskutoční sa od 30. mája do 13. júna 2021. Znamená to, že bratislavský challenger sa hrá paralelne s druhým týždňom v Paríži. „Challengerové turnaje namiesto 4 týždňov nahustili do 3 týždňov. Náš nový termín od 7. júna výdatne pomohol vylobovať Marián Vajda. Z hľadiska antukárov je to veľmi dobrý termín,“ poznamenáva Stankovič. Pavúk kvalifikácie bude 16-členný a hlavného turnaja 32-členný (naposledy v roku 2019 bol 48-členný). Turnajová dotácia sa nezmenila (tohto roku 66 640 €), hospitality sa rozšírilo aj na kvalifikáciu.

Nadal and Tsitsipas will meet for the first time on Tour, neither player having dropped a set en route to the title match. • Nadal is riding a streak of 44 consecutive sets won on clay, having survived three set points held by qualifier Martin Klizan in the quarter-finals before defeating World No. 10 David Goffin in the semi- finals, 6-4, 6-0. Nadal has now won 18 straight clay-court matches since losing to Dominic Thiem in the quarter-finals at the ATP Masters 1000 in Rome last May. By reaching his 11th Barcelona final, Nadal has become the fourth player in the Open Era to claim 400 wins on clay (400-35), joining Guillermo Vilas (659-162), Manuel Orantes (502-150), and Thomas Muster (422-127).
