Here’s the latest on the 2025 BMW Open – Singles.

Champion: Alexander Zverev defeated Ben Shelton 6–2, 6–4 in the final. This marks Zverev’s third Munich title (2017, 2018, 2025) and adds another ATP Tour title to his tally. Shelton became the first American man to reach a clay-court final at an ATP 500 level or higher since 2002.[1]

Defending champ: Jan-Lennard Struff did not defend the title successfully, losing in the first round to Francisco Cerúndolo. This is notable as it ends the run of the previous year's winner early in the event.[1]
