Entry List 2025 Transylvania Open featuring Anastasia Potapova, Clara Tauson and Katerina Siniakova
WTA
Following the conclusion of the 2025 Australian Open, several WTA stars will travel around the globe with a select few heading to Cluj-Napoca, Romania for the Transylvania Open.
A WTA 250 event, the Transylvania Open is scheduled to run from February 3-9, 2025. The hardcourt tournament had it's inaugural edition in 2021, which was won by the now-retired Estonia Anett Kontaveit. Former World No.1 Karolina Pliskova captured the trophy last year, but the Czech star is not scheduled to compete at this year's edition.
Potapova leading the charge in Transylvania
Russian tennis star Anastasia Potapova is the top seed at the event. The World No.35 will be joined by compatriot Anna Blinkova, who won the Transylvania Open title in 2022.
Joining the dynamic duo are Danish player Clara Tauson and Czech star Katerina Siniakova. There will be several Americans present at the event, including rising star Peyton Stearns, the big-hitting Alycia Parks and the always dangerous Caroline Dolehide.
The local fans will get to support some of their home stars, as Romanians Sorana Cirstea and Irina-Camelia Begu will be present to soak up all their support. Egyptian Mayar Sherif has also been confirmed for the event. Below is the list of entrants.

Growing up in a household where soccer was king, my earliest memories are filled with chants from packed stadiums and the rhythm of a ball being passed across neighborhood streets. But somewhere along the way, the quiet elegance and raw emotion of tennis pulled me in. What began as a curiosity became a lifelong passion; not just for the sport itself, but for the stories it tells: of grit, of heartbreak, of improbable comebacks and human resilience.
As a tennis writer, I bring the observational lens of someone who didn’t grow up in the sport, but fell in love with it as an outsider; a perspective that lets me see both its technical beauty and its emotional depth. Over the years working with TennisUpToDate, I’ve had the privilege of reaching more than 3.5 million readers worldwide, with one of my features ranking among the site’s top three articles.
With a background in storytelling and a creative mind always searching for meaning beyond the scoreboard, I aim to craft narratives that go deeper than results and rankings. Whether it’s a rising star breaking through or a veteran fighting off Father Time, I try to capture the heartbeat behind the headlines.

- 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.

- 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

- 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
