ITF Wheelchair Tour 2025

Similar to the main tours, the ITF Wheelchair Tour continues with events back on European clay. The Swiss Open starts tomorrow, an ITF series 1 event (same as the British Open the other week) and Cornelia goes in that as our only participant. Cornelia is still just behind Lucy, so a win or two here could be big for her.

Thereafter, we have the series 1 Belgian Open, and the series 2 Austrian Open. The US Open warm up is a series 2 event in Washington and then we are into the US Open in early September.

Thereafter, back on clay and a series 1 event in Sardinia, before the big Super Series French Riviera Open in Antibes at the end of September.

In October, there is a series 1 event in Mallorca at Nadals academy and a series 1 event at the Paris Masters also.

Thereafter year ending Masters isnt showing on the ITF calendar yet, as far as I can see. Google AI says it is Nov 3-9 in the Netherlands, but we will see if it is formally put on the calendar. 




Sadly, no win for Cornelia as she lost a close 3 setter. 

The next event for the top players will the Belgian Open, another Series 1 event, here are the main events to come: the biggest events in RED, the other big events in BLUE

July 23-27 Belgian Open Series 1

July 23-27 German Open Series 2

Aug 6-10 Austrian Open Series 2

Aug 26-31 College Park, Maryland, Series 2

A new tour structure has been announced for 2026, with the top level of the tour being a new Premier Tier based around events integrated with the main ATP and WTA tour events at 1000, 500, and 250 level events. This already happens in slams but it means more of the wheelchair events will be alongside the main tour and gives greater visibility and a clearer structure to the tour.

Details of which events will no doubt follow but it is a big step forward for wheelchair events in terms of visibility and presumably prize money

In the German Open (series 2) event we have playing:

Mens - Andrew Penney (8) and Joshua Johns

Quad - Oliver Cox

In the Belgian Open (series 1) we have:

Womens - Lucy Shuker (4) and Cornelia Oosthuizen

Quad - Greg Slade (in a 3 player draw, which is quite surprising for a Series 1 event!)
