The women's tour heads to Stuttgart for a WTA 500 event scheduled to take place from April 18-24. World No. 1 Iga Swiatek is the top seed. The Pole will be joined by six top-10 players, including Paula Badosa and Maria Sakkari. The only top-10 players who will miss the event are Garbine Muguruza, Danielle Collins and Barbora Krejcikova, who are sidelined with injuries.

Swiatek has won three tournaments in a row and will be the favorite to lift the trophy at the Stuttgart Open as well. The 2020 Roland Garros champion is currently competing at the Billie Jean King Cup, where she handed Mihaela Buzarnescu a 6-1, 6-0 beatdown to notch up her 18th consecutive win.

Bianca Andreescu will also make her return to the tour at the Stuttgart Open.
