The Singapore Tennis Open (STO) makes its highly anticipated return as an upgraded WTA 500 tournament and will take place from 21 to 27 September 2026 at the OCBC Arena at The Kallang. Following its successful run as a WTA 250 tournament last year, this elevated edition will anchor the opening of the WTA’s Asian Swing.
The upgraded tournament will offer significantly more ranking points and prize money – placing Singapore among a select group of just 18 WTA 500 events globally, alongside leading events in cities such as Brisbane and Charleston, and marking a clear step up in scale, competition and international profile from its previous WTA 250 tier.
As part of the WTA’s Asian Swing, the STO plays an important role in the latter half of the season, where players build momentum towards the year-end championships. This makes Singapore a key staging ground for top talent during a decisive stretch of the tour. The upgraded status is expected to attract a strong and competitive international field with more player announcements to follow.
