The 2026 Ningbo Open is due to take place between 19-25 October on the WTA 500 series. Elena Rybakina is currently top seed, but she has withdrawn from Wuhan this next week so whether she plays is another matter.
Rybakina is defending champion in one of her big title wins before the WTA Finals. As well as Rybakina, Jessica Pegula and Elina Svitolina lead the way. As well as Iga Swiatek, Marta Kostyuk, Belinda Bencic and Iva Jovic.
It is one of the last tournaments during the Asian hard court swing so is very much important towards the back end of the season.
