The men’s tournament series will be held as the Tannenhof Resort German Men’s Series. Tannenhof has been an official hotel and training partner of the German Tennis Federation since 2017 and is involved as a partner in the DTB initiative “Germany plays tennis” and as a presenting partner of the ATP Challenger event in Hamburg. 32 men will open the competition in the week of June 8 in eight groups of four players.
