WTA adds three events to 2021 calendar

All of the 3 new events will be held this autumn and all will be played on indoor hard courts. A new 125 K event will be held in Columbus, Ohio in the week of the 20th of September. One week after that we will see a WTA event in Nur Sultan, Kazakhstan called the Astana Open.

The tour will also return to Romania in the autumn with the Transylvania Open held in Cluj-Napoca in the week of October 25th. That event will be a WTA 250 event. These changes to the calendar won't be the final ones as several more events are still reviewing dates.
