Source-derived summary

The Stockholm Open (currently sponsored by Bybit) is an annual tennis tournament in Sweden that is part of the ATP 250 tournaments. The tournament features both men's singles and doubles events. Stockholm Open has been played on hardcourts at the Royal Tennis Hall since 1969, except between 1989 and 1994, when it was held in the Globe Arena. The tournament is traditionally held in October. In 2020, the event was canceled due to the Coronavirus pandemic, but resumed in 2021 and was held in November during that season.

History

The Stockholm Open was founded in 1969 at the initiative of former Swedish tennis star Sven Davidson.

From the 2023 edition onwards, the tournament's official name was changed to the Nordic Open after the global bank BNP Paribas joined as a title sponsor.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Stockholm Open” as annual international indoor tennis tournament in Stockholm, Sweden. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1969, 1989, 1994, 2020—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1969-01-01. The account is most persuasive where Stockholm, annual and international can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as annual international indoor tennis tournament in Stockholm, Sweden. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q299745. Authority coordinates are 59.350, 18.095. None of the 3 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1969, 1989, 1994 and 2020.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
