Britain’s Cam Norrie will travel to Ilkley next month as the top seed as the entry list for the ATP event at the 2025 Lexus Ilkley Open is confirmed.
Norrie, a former British No.1 and world No.8, has won five ATP Tour titles, including the Masters 1000 Indian Wells title in 2021, and reached the semi-finals of Wimbledon in 2022.
Billy Harris, whose last appearance in Ilkley came in qualifying in 2018, is hoping for a strong summer to break into the world’s top 100 for the first time, having reached three semi-finals on British grass last summer in Surbiton, Nottingham and Eastbourne. Harris also enjoyed a run to his first ATP Tour quarter-final at Queen’s which included a career-best win over then world No.32 Tomas Martin Etcheverry.
Alongside Norrie and Harris, American and former Wimbledon quarter-finalist Chris Eubanks and Brandon Holt, who has already reached three ATP Challenger finals this year and is the son of former women’s world No.1 Tracy Austin, are also set to play in the second men’s grass court event of the British summer.
As part of a revamped summer calendar announced last year, the Lexus Ilkley Open has moved to the second week of June, and this year’s event features a WTA 125 level event for the first time alongside an ATP Challenger 125 draw, having previously been an ITF W100 level event.
The WTA entry list was confirmed earlier this month, with Britain’s Harriet Dart and 2024 winner Rebecca Marino among the names set to compete.
Rik Smith, Tournament Director of the Lexus Ilkley Open, said,
“After recently confirming a strong WTA list, the entries for the men’s event mean spectators travelling to Ilkley this summer are in for a treat. To have the likes of Cam, who has been among the world’s best players for a number of years, and Billy, whose performance last year was one of the stories of the British grass court season, along with a great mix of established names and rising stars of the sport, shows the pull this event has, and that we can look forward to seeing world-class action on show."
Centre Court tickets start from £30, with grounds admission tickets starting from £17 for adults and £10 for kids. All tickets can be purchased on the LTA’s website.
