Draw Charleston Open 2025 headlined by Jessica Pegula, Madison Keys, Zheng Qinwen and Emma Navarro
WTA
The draw has been made ahead of the 2025 Charleston Open which is due to take place between March 31 - April 6, 2025 with Jessica Pegula as top seed in South Carolina over the next week.
A WTA 500, it marks the start of the clay court season and ironically Pegula is currently in action during the final of the Miami Open so could yet win back-to-back titles. She faces Heather Watson or a qualifier in the second round.
In her section is Peyton Stearns who faces likely Ajla Tomljanovic in the second round. Second seed is Madison Keys who faces Caroline Dolehide or Elisabetta Cocciaretto as she returns after a pretty up and down Sunshine Double on her return after the Australian Open.
Anna Kalinskaya is in her section of the draw. She faces Anhelina Kalinina first of all. Daria Kasatkina marks her first tournament as an Australian and will face Lauren Davis or a qualifier.
Emma Navarro is technically on home soil given her dad Ben is tournament director and sponsors the tournament with his company CreditOne. She made her WTA Main Draw debut at this event and returns as fourth seed facing either Olivia Gadecki or Hailey Baptiste.
Ashlyn Krueger could face Navarro and she takes on either Katie Volynets or a qualifier in the second round. Amanda Anisimova is also part of the American contingent and could face former champion Veronika Kudermetova in the second round.
Zheng Qinwen is third seed and faces either Maria Sakkari or Marina Stakusic. Danielle Collins is seventh seed and is defending champion and faces either Viktoriya Tomova or Robin Montgomery. They also sit in the same section as Jelena Ostapenko who could face Belinda Bencic in a tough second round.
Diana Shnaider is also among the top seeds aiming to finally kick start her season, she faces Polina Kudermetova or Irina-Camelia Begu.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!mandoist09-11-2026
- "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?mandoist09-11-2026
- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026
- Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
