The Hana Bank Korea Open will take place Oct. 7-15 at the Olympic Park tennis courts in Seoul, South Korea.


Korean-American Pegula, who is in the prime of her career this year, returns to the Korea Open for the first time in four years since 2019.

Pegula has had a steady rise this year, 스포츠토토 winning titles in Doha and Montreal on the WTA 1000 Series. She has reached the quarterfinals of two majors this season (Australian Open and Wimbledon).


Pegula will also hold a fan meeting during the tournament.


Coria Open 'regular' Jelena Ostapenko (Latvia) will also be competing in this year's event.

Venus Williams


Venus Williams has been a favorite, especially after winning the French Open in June 2017 and then the Coria Open in September of that year.


Williams, the oldest active player at 43, will be joined by defending champion Ekaterina Alexandrova (Russia) and Beatriz Adad Maia (Brazil).


The Korea Open is the only WTA Tour event in South Korea, which began in 2004 and is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.


Over the years, many Korean players have gotten the chance to challenge the professional stage through the Korea Open.


It is also an important stage for Korean fans, who don't have many opportunities to watch advanced tennis at home, to witness the brilliant play of major tournament winners.


The Korea Open will be held as a WTA 250 event until this year, but next year it will be upgraded to a WTA 500 event, which will bring even more big-name players to Seoul.


Tickets can be purchased on Hana Bank's mobile app, Hana OneQ, from 6pm on the 14th. 스포츠토토맨
