I'm just watching some coverage of Stuttgart and it made me wonder what tournaments everyone else likes to watch. In the past I have only watched Wimbledon but as I've gotten older I enjoy watching a variety of tournaments and slams.

Looking forward to Tsitsipas - Gasquet later!

I have to laugh at myself. When I was a kid I would get annoyed at my mum wanting to watch Wimbledon because it meant missing The Simpsons for two weeks (lol). Now I watch more tennis than she does!

I've recently started being into tennis but I only watch Grand Slams. From what I know, the leadup lower tier tournaments are like a warmup for the top players. What would be some interesting tournaments to look out before Wimbledon?

Right now, we’re in grass season leading up to Wimbledon. There are grass tournaments on both the men’s and women’s sides up until Wimby starts on July 3.

The men have tournaments going on now in Stuttgart and s’Hertogenbosch. The big tune-ups are next week in Halle and London, and then Eastbourne and Mallorca the week before Wimbledon.

The women are in Nottingham and s’Hertogenbosch this week, Berlin and Birmingham next week, and Bad Homburg and Eastbourne the week after that.

Thanks for sharing these tournaments! Any idea where I can watch them online? And TIL men's and women's tennis have completely different tournament schedules

That’s gonna depend on your location. I tend to just Google where I can watch the tournament for free and fire up my VPN. 9News in Australia has a bunch of tournaments available for free
