2022 Hana Bank Korea Open Entry List featuring Raducanu, Ostapenko and Bouchard

The WTA Tour makes a stop in Seoul, Korea for the Hana Bank Korea Open, which is a new addition to the circuit following a revised calendar due to the pandemic.

A WTA 250 event, the Korea Open is a hard-court tournament and will run from September 19-25, 2022. Last year's US Open champion Emma Raducanu will look to recover from her disappointing first round loss, as she is scheduled to compete in Seoul as the top seed.
