Zug Open 

The Zug Open is the fourth-largest ATP professional tournament in Switzerland after Basel, Geneva and Gstaad. It took place for the second time in July 2023 at Tennisclub Zug on clay courts. Tournament ambassador Severin Lüthi opened the week with the Kids & Family Day. This was followed by many matches with top-class tennis and a great atmosphere on centre court. After Dominic Stricker had already lost in the first round and Fabio Fognini in the semi-final against Belgian Joris De Loore, top seed Arthur Rinderknech took the title against the surprise man of the tournament. The Frenchman defeated De Loore in 3 sets (3:6 6:3 6:4).

ATP Challenger Tour

Founded in 1978, the ATP Challenger Tour is a series of international professional tennis tournaments for men. They form the substructure of the ATP Tour, while they have higher prize money than the tournaments of the ITF Future Tour, where tennis players usually start their careers. The Challenger Tour is primarily used by players outside the top 100 of the world rankings to collect enough ranking points to participate in tournaments on the ATP Tour and the Grand Slams. Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic also earned ATP points in this way before becoming figureheads and legends of the sport.
