–

It’s another week of great opportunities for the lower-ranked players – which paid off last week for Petra Martic and Olga Danilovic and Bernarda Pera and Aleksandra Krunic.

This week, the WTA Tour moves on to Hamburg, where it shares space with the men’s 500 event, and to the charming event in Palermo, Sicily.
