The 2025 Croatia Open is offering some pretty decent prize money this year. We’re talking about €596,035 total up for grabs when the tournament kicks off July 20-26 in Umag.
This ATP 250 event has managed to attract some big names despite tough competition. It’s happening during a busy week when players have three tournaments to choose from.
Stefanos Tsitsipas headlines the entry list alongside Hubert Hurkacz and Tallon Griekspoor.

But there’s a question mark hanging over Tsitsipas right now. The Greek star had to retire during his first-round match at Wimbledon due to injury. That was especially tough timing since he’d just hired Goran Ivanisevic – Novak Djokovic’s former coach and a Wimbledon champion himself.
Everyone was excited to see what that partnership could do at the All England Club.
Tsitsipas will be hoping for better luck on the clay courts in Croatia. He’s always played his best tennis on clay – just look at his three Monte-Carlo Masters titles and that 2021 French Open final appearance.
The Croatia Open has some serious tennis history behind it. This is where Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner played their very first final back in 2022.
Sinner won that match 6-7, 6-1, 6-1 after the 19-year-old Alcaraz completely fell apart in the final two sets. It was pretty brutal to watch.
Interestingly, Alcaraz had actually won the Croatia Open title the year before in 2021.
The Money and Points Breakdown
The champion this year walks away with €90,675 and 250 ranking points. Francisco Cerundolo is the defending champ after beating Lorenzo Musetti in what many called one of the best finals ever played in Umag – a crazy 2-6, 6-4, 7-6 thriller.
The runner-up gets €52,890 and 165 points, which isn’t too shabby.
Musetti won’t be back to try and go one step further this time. He’s decided to start his hard-court preparation early instead.
Last year’s semifinals featured some top names too. Andrey Rublev and Jakub Mensik both made it that far, showing just how competitive this tournament can be.
This year’s semifinalists will earn €31,090 and 100 points each. Those 100 points can make a real difference – the ATP rankings are super tight these days, and that could be enough to jump several spots.
Quarterfinalists pick up €18,015 and 50 points. Not bad for a week’s work, though someone like Tsitsipas is definitely aiming higher than that.
The second round pays €10,460 and 25 points. The top four seeds get byes straight to this round, which right now looks like it’ll be Cerundolo, Tsitsipas, Griekspoor, and Hurkacz.
Even first-round losers don’t go home empty-handed – they’ll get €6,390. No ranking points though, which is standard across all ATP tournaments.
Last Call for Clay
Here’s something that makes this tournament extra special: the Croatia Open and the Kitzbuhel Open (happening the same week) are the last clay-court events on the ATP tour until March.
That’s a long time between clay seasons.
It means players who love the red dirt will want to make the most of this opportunity. For someone like Tsitsipas, who’s built his career on clay-court success, this could be his last chance to grab a title on his favorite surface before the long wait begins.
The timing puts extra pressure on everyone to deliver something special for the fans in what’s essentially clay season’s grand finale.
