With the ITF previously confirming the Billie Jean King Cup 2020 Finals & Playoffs would take place in Budapest the week of April 12, it enabled renowned clay-court tournaments to maintain their spots. Stuttgart (500), Madrid (1000) and Rome (1000) will lead into a week of three 250-level tournaments, in Strasbourg, Rabat and a new event in Cologne, before players descend in Paris for Roland Garros.

Three weeks of WTA grass events, highlighted by the inaugural 500 in Berlin and a popular stop on tour, the 500 at Eastbourne, precede The Championships at SW19. Wimbledon was the lone Grand Slam event to cancel in 2020, aided by an insurance policy that covered pandemics.
