The Delray Beach Open returns this month and it’s safe to say that excitement has reached an all-time high. The tournament is held February 7-16, 2025 at the Delray Beach Stadium & Tennis Center in downtown Delray Beach.
The Palm Beach County stop on the ATP Tour annually plays in front of over 60,000 fans and is broadcast live to millions of viewers in more than 100 countries around the globe.
Celebrating its 33rd year, the 10-day tournament is continuing the tradition of outdoing itself every year, and the 2025 DBO is set to be the best yet!
This year, both tennis fans and foodie fans have a lot to celebrate as the DBO has announced the expansion of its Delray Beach Open Food & Wine Series as well as the return of back-to-back winner of the 2023 DBO and 2024 DBO Taylor Fritz, currently ranked No. 4 in the world, attempting to defend his title for what would be a historic third year in a row. Fritz became the first American man to reach the US Open final last year since Andy Roddick in 2006.
The tournament kicks off with an ATP Legends event for the ages on opening weekend. Former Delray Beach Open Champion and 2009 US Open champion Juan Martin del Potro will return to the DBO for the first time in six years to play in the Legends Event. Alongside other Legends he’ll face off against Bob and Mike Bryan, the best doubles team of all time who won 16 Grand Slam titles and six DBO trophies and will be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame this summer. French Open champs Luke and Murphy Jensen, and Delray singles champions Sam Querrey, Jack Sock, Tommy Haas and Xavier Malisse will round out a stellar Legends Opening Weekend Feb. 7-9 that also includes the qualifying rounds for the ATP event.
Palm Beach County resident Tommy Paul, last year’s runner-up who is currently ranked among the world’s Top 15 players, returns after a career-best season in 2024, winning three titles, reaching the Wimbledon quarterfinals and briefly overtaking Taylor Fritz twice as the No. 1 American player. To top off the year, he and Fritz won the Olympic doubles bronze medal in Paris.
“The 2025 Delray Beach Open is going to blow people away,” said Adam Baron, Executive Director of the DBO. “The tennis is set to be more thrilling than ever with the return of del Potro opening week-end and Taylor Fritz going for the three-peat. We’ve also added new events, including the already-sold-out Grand Tasting, expanded the brunches and also created a special event for Valentine’s Day called Valentine’s and Volleys that features gourmet Italian food and wine.
Plus, for the first time ever, we’ll have in-stadium food and beverage service at the all-new Mezzanine Level seats.”
The week-long social event of the year, the DBO Food & Wine Series, is back for 2025 and offering even more elevated culinary experiences than ever before.
