This is always an amazing tournament with lots of exciting matches. It has been around since 2021 but this year is set to probably be one of the most exciting tournaments of the year for the women. February 1st - 7th with an amazing hard-court freshly redone last year which caters to a lot of the women with strong forehands and powerful serves. It's a WTA 500 event which always brings the heat and great competition.

The #2 seed is my favorite in the tournament, Ekaterna Alexandrova is going to be very hard to beat. She has restructured her whole team and this tournament she is due to shine. Also watch out for the Canadian which is the #6 seed Leylah Fernandez she has completely turned her game around and will be a force as well. The #8 seed Paula Badosa has had some issues off the court but she is determined to get back to her old self and have a great showing.

All times are Vietnam time so check your local times
Today at 14:00 Ashlyn Krueger is currently -145 at Pinnacle vs Sarah Bejlek which is +128, this is going to be a true dogfight.

Today at 16:00 Janice Tjen is -102 vs Maya Joint -110, this is going to be a very fierce battle as these two players don't like each other.

Today at 22:00 Alexandra Eala is -108 vs Zeynep Sonmez, this is probably going to be the most intense match of the day.

This tournament gets better and better each year with record turnouts and each year grows more interest. Stay tuned for updates in this thread and good luck with your plays!!

Tremendous preview Illini

Is going to be a hell of a match today! 16:00, Vietnam time, can't wait for this. The fact the court is freshly redone will favor Simona too!

How Belinda Bencic won Abu Dhabi 2025

The Swiss No. 1 rose from outside the top 400 to No. 11 by the end of the 2025 season, and started 2026 with a stellar United Cup most-valuable player run that saw her defeat Swiatek, Elise Mertens and Jasmine Paolini.
