„As a German wheelchair tennis player, I'm especially looking forward to this new highlight on the international calendar. The integration of wheelchair tennis into WTA tournaments is the right signal for inclusion and helps us to create visibility for women in parasport. I know that as athletes we can expect optimal conditions in Hamburg, and the fans can look forward to world-class wheelchair tennis!"

„The Hamburg Wheelchair Open are a strong signal for an inclusive and diverse sports city. The fact that wheelchair tennis and professional tennis are taking place together on the same stage at Rothenbaum is a living example of what our Active City strategy stands for: more participation, more visibility, and more opportunities for everyone to experience and practise sport. I am delighted that Hamburg is taking on a pioneering role here."

„Presenting wheelchair tennis athletes on equal footing with WTA professionals in a legendary location like Hamburg's Rothenbaum gives wheelchair tennis in Germany the stage it deserves, but unfortunately, one it only too rarely gets. For me, as the national wheelchair tennis coach, this is more than just a major tournament – it's a powerful signal for inclusion that can radiate throughout the entire German tennis community!"

„The integration of the Hamburg Wheelchair Open into our WTA tournament, the MSC Hamburg Ladies Open, creates a major stage for international top-class sport, lived inclusion and social visibility. Wheelchair tennis is one of the leading Paralympic sports and stands for great competition, fairness and inspiration worldwide. With this ‘Combined Event“, we are giving wheelchair tennis the visibility that this sport deserves. We would like to thank all our partners who support us in this endeavour.“

„Inclusion, for us, means making tennis accessible to everyone and embracing diversity as a strength. The Hamburg Wheelchair Open send a powerful message in this regard. When wheelchair and women's tennis share the spotlight together at Rothenbaum, it creates visibility and genuine participation. It is precisely these kinds of projects that enable us to showcase the openness and diversity of our sport externally and inspire many people within Tennis Germany to get involved.“
