Maharashtra Open

Maharashtra Open (known as Tata Open Maharashtra for sponsorship reasons) is a professional men's tennis tournament played on outdoor hard courts in Pune, India. It is part of the ATP Tour 250 series on the ATP Tour.

The inaugural event was held in New Delhi. It was then shifted to Chennai since its second edition, and from there it was moved to Pune in 2018, where it is held in January. The tournament is owned and organized by RISE Worldwide. It is the only tour level tennis event currently held in India. It is also the only South Asia's ATP tour professional tennis event.

It is annually organised by Maharashtra Lawn Tennis Association (MLTA).

The 2022 edition is taking place behind closed doors, that is without audience, due to measures to restrain the diffusion of COVID-19 pandemic. It began on 31 January.

History

Stan Wawrinka is the most successful player at the event, winning 4 titles (2011, 2014, 2015, and 2016) and reaching a further final (2010).

Indian duo of Mahesh Bhupathi and Leander Paes won the doubles titles four times between 1997 and 2002, and again in 2011.

Maharashtra Open is held since 1996. In its first year it was located in New Delhi, then in Chennai where it was renamed as Chennai Open. The championship moved from there to Pune, a town of Maharashtra, in 2018 and was rebranded as Maharashtra Open.

In 2021 due to COVID-19 and clash of dates with Australian Open it was not organised.
