    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.

Accepted draft One Saturday afternoon in the bedroom of the purpose-built international student apartment in Carlton, Melbourne that she shares with three Chinese classmates, 20-year old Ying, an Arts student from Hebei Province, connects via her laptop to a popular media download site based in China. While downloading several recent movies and TV series episodes (from China, Thailand and Hollywood), Ying opens up her QQ account and makes a video call to her parents back home. Speaking with her mother, she catches up on the latest news and gossip from her family and hometown. Ying then posts a comment on an ex-schoolmate’s status update on WeChat (the Chinese WhatsApp-style platform): ‘Nice pic! You and your BF are such a cute couple, haha. Miss you. Message me!’ She then scans a favourite gossip account to catch up on celebrity news from China. Once Ying’s downloads are complete, she spends the rest of the afternoon immersed in the latest episodes of the Chinese TV comedy series that screened back home the previous week. Yaqi, a 20-year-old from Liaoning Province, sits by the window on a suburban train travelling from the leafy eastern suburb of Camberwell, where she lives in a homestay, to Melbourne’s Central Business District, where she studies actuarial studies. Yaqi is engrossed in the screen of her smartphone, where she scrolls through recent posts on her Weibo feed (the Chinese Twitter-like platform), catching up on the details of a recent political scandal involving a prominent member of the Chinese Communist Party.

  • GREG NORMAN Wednesday, December 10, 2014
    PRE-TOURNAMENT INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT: GREG NORMAN Wednesday, December 10, 2014 DAVE SENKO: Well, we would like to welcome our host, Greg Norman. Greg, this is 26 years for your event, 14 years in Naples. A couple changes this year. Maybe you could just get us started, talk about the new format, a little bit of a course change as well as Fox's debut as broadcasting golf. GREG NORMAN: Absolutely. First of all, I said it when we had the 25th anniversary last year that I never anticipated running this tournament for 25 years. Now we're into 26 and it seems like we're just getting better and better every year. There's been the golf course changes. Fortunately for us we had a 36-hole golf course to be able to work with. The agronomy department, we all know there was a disease got into the greens so we made the adjustments very, very quickly. Quite honestly, as far as I was concerned, I always wanted to use -- I'm going to get them all mixed up -- the black course in the beginning because I really thought it was a better golf course to play. So, you know, we made the adjustments very, very quickly. I think the players really like the new golf course, the layout of the golf course. So there really has been sort of a seamless transition, quite honestly. And the third one with Fox, extremely excited about it, I really am. There's a lot of things I've done in my life and there's a lot of opportunities I've had to do new things in life but this is one that I'm extremely excited about.
