The venue is the Open GDF Suez de Belfort with thirty two singles draws and sixteen doubles draws. The tournament will consist of the first round, followed by the second round and then we will move into the quarterfinal. The remaining players will compete in the semi-final to decide the final match. This is a knockout tournament and this format will allow these women to show their stuff and earn recognition and prize money that will move them through onto more professional tennis tournaments, with it all starting at events just like these.
This will be a carpet tournament, which is fairly unusual for a tennis competition and there is some serious talent that is planning to be on that carpet this year. Qualifying players this year include Darija Jurak, Conny Perrin who will be battling Estelle Guisard from France in the first round as well as another French player Constance Sibille. Karina Pimkina qualified as did Yero Campos-Melina, Claudia Giovine and Oxana Lyubtsova. Wildcards are Anne-Valerie Evain from France, Audrey Bergot, also from France, Morgane Pons and Caroline Garcia. You can watch these women battle it out with your membership to high quality streaming video action of the Open de Belfort.
