The joint-ATP-WTA event will once again be staged at Foro Italico in Rome in what will be the 82nd edition of the tournament in the Italian capital. The men’s and women’s tournaments were held separately before it became a combined event in 2011.
When does the 2025 Italian Open take place?
The women’s tournament will start on Tuesday, May 6 while the men’s competition gets underway a day later on May 7.
For the women, this is the second and final WTA 1000 event on clay after the Madrid Open while for the men it’s their third Masters 1000 event on the red dirt with the Monte Carlo Masters and Madrid Open preceding the Italian tournament on the ATP Tour calendar.
