Stuttgart 2025: TV schedule, start time, order of play, and live streaming details | Day 1, April 14 | Porsche Tennis Grand Prix

The European claycourt swing will officially get underway at Stuttgart on Monday (April 14), with players taking to the court for the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. The WTA 500 event line-up features all the top-4 players, including Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff.

While the top seeds have received a bye in the opening round, there’s still plenty of action to look forward to on the first couple of days.

The only seed in action, eight-seeded Diana Shnaider, will be on Centre Court in the day's final match. She will lock horns with qualifier Veronika Kudermetova. Opening play on the court will be an exhibition match, followed by the first-round encounter between Anastasia Potapova and Clara Tauson.

Aliaksandra Sasnovich, who, like Kudermetova, came through the qualification draw, will also be in action. She will take on Elise Mertens in the second match scheduled on Court 1. They will follow the opening doubles match on the court, set to feature the pairing of Jelena Ostapenko and Dayana Yastremska, taking on Nastasja Schunk and Ella Seidel.

Before we head towards the encounters, let’s take a detailed look at how things will unfold on Day 1 of the 2025 Porsche Tennis Grand Prix:
