The BOSS OPEN at ServusTV Germany (June 12th to 18th)
A professional men's tennis tournament has been held at the TC Weissenhof facility for over 100 years. Since 2015, grass has been played in Stuttgart, which means that the BOSS OPEN is seen as the ideal preparation for the Grand Slam highlight in Wimbledon and is very much appreciated by the players. Absolute world-class players play on the Wimbledon lawn. Two "turf aces" have already been confirmed for 2023: Italian defending champion Matteo Berrettini and Australian Nick Kyrgios, who delivered one of his best seasons on the ATP tour in 2022.
From Monday, June 12, ServusTV Germany will be broadcasting all main draw matches daily from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. live and exclusively on free TV and as a stream on ServusTV On. The station will show the first semi-final on Saturday, June 17 from 11:30 a.m. and the second from 3:30 p.m. The grand finale can be seen on Sunday, June 18, from 3:30 p.m. including the award ceremony. On site, Birgit Nössing moderates together with the ServusTV expert Tommy Haas, who, as a former second in the world rankings, provides the viewers with exciting insights. Philipp Eger and Markus Theil will comment, supported by co-commentator and tennis expert Christopher Kas.
The bett1open at ServusTV Germany (June 19th to 25th)
The bett1open are entering the third round: On the grass pitches of the Steffi Graf Stadium of the LTTC “Rot-Weiß” eV, which were newly created in 2019, the participants in Germany’s largest grass tennis tournament are fighting for important world ranking points in addition to the prize money. In addition to German top players, many other international superstars will be in Berlin. Local hero Sabine Lisicki can also be seen on the Berlin lawn with a wild card. ServusTV Germany shows all games between 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. live and exclusively on free TV and in the stream on ServusTV On. Birgit Nössing moderates live on site from the capital, with experts at her side including former Austrian top ten player Barbara Schett, Herbert Gogel, Marco Hagemann and Philipp Eger. Christopher Kas is also on site as a co-commentator in Berlin.
"With the BOSS OPEN and the bett1open, we have two top German tournaments in our portfolio and are very happy about the renewed partnership with e|motion sports," commented David Morgenbesser, Managing Director at ServusTV.
