PRESS RELEASE

Nordea continues as title sponsor for the Båstad tennis weeks

After a successful summer of tennis in Båstad, where both attendance and financial records were broken, it is now official that Nordea is extending its title sponsorship of Nordea Open until at least 2027. This year’s Båstad tennis tournament saw a record-breaking 85,000 spectators, further solidifying the event’s position as one of the world’s premier summer tennis tournaments.

Tournament Director Christer Hult described the year as a “pinch-me experience,” despite world No. 1 Jannik Sinner withdrawing at the last minute. Spanish tennis legend Rafael Nadal, however, proved to be a fan favorite, reaching the final where he faced Portugal’s Nuno Borges.

One of the most significant aspects of Nordea Open is the opportunity it provides Swedish players, both men and women, to compete at the highest international level on home soil. Through the tournament, these talents can measure themselves against the world’s elite and grow their careers in front of a supportive home crowd. The tournament plays a vital role in the development of Swedish tennis.

Nordea Open has not only been a success on-site in Båstad but also reached a global audience. Broadcasts and streaming of the tournament were distributed to over 95 countries, and there were a total of 12 million views on social media—equivalent to the combined social media presence of the Hamburg, Gstaad, and Newport tournaments.

Martin Persson, Head of Large Corporates & Institutions and Branch Manager of Nordea Sweden, commented: “We very much look forward to see you all in Båstad where we plan to connect world class tennis with business networking, social engagement and how we together can take the next needed steps towards a more sustainable future.”

The future of the tournament is secured with a solid group of sponsors, with Nordea having an option to extend the agreement until 2029. This ensures that Nordea Open will remain a world-class tournament, both on and off the court.

We warmly welcome you to Nordea Open 2025 in Båstad, from July 7 to 20!
