PETERSBURG LADIES TROPHY ST. PETERSBURG, RUSSIA | MARCH 15-31, 2021 | $565,530 WTA 500 TOURNAMENT TALKING POINTS • Ten Russian women line up for the sixth edition of the St. Petersburg Ladies Trophy, including former Top 10 trio, Daria Kasatkina, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Vera Zvonareva. • However, it is Ekaterina Alexandrova seeded No.1 in Russia’s second city, and after an opening round bye she will take on either Tereza Martincova or Stefanie Voegele in the second round. • Joining Alexandrova in the top half are French pair Fiona Ferro and Kristina Mladenovic – the only former champion in the draw. No.3 seed Ferro will face Zvonareva or Arina Rodionova after her first-round bye, while 2017 winner Mladenovic meets wildcard Margarita Gasparyan. • Meanwhile, Kasatkina and Kuznetsova are both in a strong bottom half of the draw, along with No.2 seed Veronika Kudermetova and former Roland Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko. • In doubles, three-times major winner Elena Venina continues her comeback alongside fellow mother Zvonareva, taking on Vera Lapko and Cornelia Lister in the first round. • One to Watch – Clara Tauson. Despite only turning 18 in December, Tauson’s steady ascent up the WTA rankings suggests that Danish tennis may well have a worthy successor to Caroline Wozniacki sooner rather than later. Like Wozniacki, Tauson was a decorated junior, lifting the Australian Open girls’ singles in 2019. The following year she began to make her mark in the senior ranks, upsetting Jennifer Brady on her Grand Slam debut at Roland Garros and lifting a couple of titles on the ITF Circuit. She has elevated her game once more in 2021, lifting her maiden WTA title in Lyon and, following two wins in qualifying here, is currently on a 13-match winning streak.

  • 2020 Western & Southern Open Doubles Field
    Western & Southern Open Defending Champions Headline Doubles Fields CINCINNATI (Aug. 11, 2020) – Both the women’s and men’s defending champions are among the initial entries to play doubles at the 2020 Western & Southern Open, which will be held Aug. 20-28 at the USTA Billie Jean King Tennis Center in New York. The 2019 WTA doubles winners – Lucie Hradecka and Andreja Klepac – are joined by the ATP Tour champions – Ivan Dodig and Filip Polasek – to headline the early entries. Other notable entries on the women’s side include the teenage pairing of Cincinnati’s 18-year-old Caty McNally and 16-year-old Coco Gauff. Dubbed “McCoco,” the duo won a pair of WTA titles in 2019 – at Washington, D.C. and Luxembourg – and reached the US Open Round of 16. Elise Mertens and Aryna Sabalenka, who finished 2019 atop the WTA Porsche Race to Shenzen as the season’s No. 1 team, are also in the field. Reigning Australian Open singles champion Sofia Kenin, a 21-year- old American, has entered with former Western & Southern Open singles and doubles winner Victoria Azarenka. The top two teams in the ATP Tour doubles race are entered in the men’s draw. The No. 1 team of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah is returning after reaching two straight Western & Southern Open finals. They are joined in the field by the No. 2 team of Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo. The ATP Tour No. 1 ranked singles player, Novak Djokovic, has entered the doubles draw with countryman Filip Krajinovic. An additional five women’s teams and six men’s duos will join the fields through on-site entries, while the tournament will award three wild cards into each draw to complete the 32-team fields.
