Tsitsipas Accepts Stuttgart Wild Card
Stefanos Tsitsipas will make his debut at the BOSS OPEN after accepting a wild card into the ATP 250 grass-court event, which will take place in Stuttgart from 6-12 June.
It will be the first time that the Greek has competed on grass this season. Last year, the 23-year-old played just one match on the surface, losing to Frances Tiafoe in the first round at Wimbledon.

Tsitsipas arrives in Stuttgart off the back of a fourth-round exit to #NextGenATP Dane Holger Rune at Roland Garros. He is currently 34-11 on the season, having captured his second ATP Masters 1000 crown in Monte Carlo in April.
In a strong field, Matteo Berrettini, Hubert Hurkacz and Denis Shapovalov will also be competing. Marin Cilic clinched the trophy at the ATP 250 event last season, defeating Felix Auger-Aliassime in the final.
