Every summer since 1915, tennis lovers have turned their attention to the clay court at the renowned resort of Gstaad in the Bernese Oberland.

In addition to attracting the world’s finest tennis players, the Crédit Agricole Suisse Open Gstaad offers a combination of Swiss tradition and authenticity in the heart of the Alps. Some of the Swiss Open Gstaad champions were just 20 years old when they won (Richard Gasquet, Stefan Edberg), others were 33 (Roy Emerson); some were winning their first tournament (Thomaz Bellucci), others were already the world No 1 (Roger Federer).

Together, they have all contributed to this legendary tournament, which in turn allowed them to rise up the world tennis rankings. Above all, the Crédit Agricole Suisse Open Gstaad offers a rare opportunity to see the players close-up.

Spectators can share unique, unforgettable moments with the stars of the ATP World Tour, not just on-court but at a Mini Tennis event, a Battle of Aces, or simply strolling down the famous Gstaad Promenade.

Private banking is our core business and we will be visible at the tournament under the Crédit Agricole Private Banking banner. Crédit Agricole Suisse Open Gstaad is the premier clay-court tennis tournament in Switzerland. It offers visitors a unique geographical location and a roster of top-flight players.
