Krejcikova, Ostapenko, Collins pull out of Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart

The indoor clay event in Stuttgart suffered a huge blow to its field with Barbora Krejcikova, Jelena Ostapenko and Danielle Collins pulling out of the event.

The tennis event is a very popular event as it allows playing on clay indoors which not many players get to do often. Last year we had Ashleigh Barty winning the event as she defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the final. This year we won't get Barty as she is retired which means we will get a new champion. Krejcikova, Ostapenko and Collins won't be that as they all pulled out of the event.

Still the event has a pretty strong field headlined by current world number one Iga Swiatek. It will be the 2nd year in a row that the event will host the active world number one. We will also see Maria Sakkari and Coco Gauff among others.
