2020 ASB Classic Women's Qualifying start list confirmed

Qualifying at the 2020 ASB Classic does have a lot to offer as it features names which already ranked among the TOP 10 in the world.

Former world number 9 Coco Vandeweghe will be playing qualifying in Auckland. She will be joined by former world number 12 Yanina Wickmayer and former no.19 Varvara Lepchenko. Qualifying promises a big competition ahead of the tournament which will be played from 6th - 12th of January 2020.

Tournament Director Karl Budge believes it is a really strong group of players in qualifying. He mentions Bianca Andreescu who went through the qualifying last year and ended the tournament as a runner-up.

“Qualifying gives a chance to announce yourself on the WTA stage. You only have to look at last year where Bianca came through qualifying to reach the final and go on to finish number 5 in the world. With players like Coco in the draw, someone who was top ten 18 months ago, a repeat of last year could very well be on the cards.”
