Berrys and Morris Property are proud to announce the continuation of their sponsorship of the prestigious VIP Finals Day Lunch at the newly rebranded Lexus Wrexham Open – formerly the W100 Shrewsbury event. This move to Wrexham marks an exciting new chapter for the tournament, establishing it as the largest tennis event in Wales since 1996 and the most significant women’s tennis tournament in the UK this year outside the grass court season.
Long-time supporters of the tournament, Berrys and Morris Property have a deep-rooted association with the event and its promotor, Dave Courteen, with senior leaders from both firms being enthusiastic supporters of sport and active participants themselves. Their continued backing reflects a shared commitment to promoting health, wellbeing and community engagement through high-profile events like the Lexus Wrexham Open.
Taking place from 19-26 October, 2025 at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre, the tournament will welcome top British and international tennis stars to North Wales for this prestigious ITF World Tennis Tour event. For the duration of the tournament, the venue will be transformed into a world-class arena, with a 600-seat stadium built around the main show court – offering spectators an unforgettable opportunity to witness elite-level tennis up close.
“We’re delighted to see the event evolve and expand while remaining true to its values,” said Stuart Thomas, Chief Executive Officer at Berrys. “Our ongoing sponsorship of the VIP Finals Day Lunch highlights our dedication to supporting community-led initiatives that promote wellness and regional growth.”
Robin Morris, Chairman at Morris Property added, “This tournament has always been about more than world-class tennis – it’s about bringing people together, inspiring the next generation, and fostering positive conversations around health, business and opportunity. We are pleased to continue playing a part in its success.”
