–
A tough, tough opening match for both Naomi Osaka and Leylah Fernandez open their Wuhan campaigns.
With the 56-player draw, Fernandez is unseeded and No. 11 seed Osaka doesn’t get a first-round bye.
They’ve only played once before and it was memorable. Fernandez came back from a set down to beat her 6-4 in the third, in the third round of the 2021 where she went on to make the final.
But otherwise, many good matches in store: Muchova vs. Kostyuk (OOF) and Ostapenko vs. Cirstea. And Bencic vs. Vekic.
And Andreescu and Mboko both play doubles.
