The WTA moves to Cleveland, Ohio for the Tennis In the Land Cleveland Open event, which runs from August 21-27, 2022.
A WTA 250 tournament, it is one of the last warmup events before the US Open. The event features a 32-woman singles field and a 16-player doubles draw. Defending champion Anett Kontaveit won the inaugural edition in 2021, but will not be competing at this year's event.
Nonetheless, a slew of stars will be present, as exciting Italians Martina Trevisan and Camila Giorgi are scheduled to participate this year.
Joining the field are Ekaterina Alexandrova, the big-hitting Elise Mertens and recent Warsaw champion Caroline Garcia. Veterans Kaia Kanepi and Alize Cornet have also been announced, as has the in-form American Shelby Rogers.
Below is the full list of entrants.
