Elena Rybakina has decided to add another tournament to her schedule in preparation for the French Open, accepting a wildcard entry into the Strasbourg tournament. This decision comes as Rybakina aims to fine-tune her game following recent early exits in both Madrid and Rome.
Rybakina’s acceptance of the wildcard significantly boosts the Strasbourg tournament’s lineup, which already includes a number of other top-ranked players. Her presence will make the event even more competitive, providing a strong field of contenders vying for the title.
The player has had success at the Strasbourg tournament in the past, having reached the final in 2020. This prior experience with the tournament and its conditions likely played a role in her decision to participate again.
By participating in the Strasbourg tournament, Rybakina aims to gain valuable match experience on clay, the surface used at the French Open. This additional tournament provides an opportunity to hone her skills, adjust her strategies, and build momentum leading into the Grand Slam event.
The Strasbourg tournament is shaping up to be a highly anticipated event, with a total of nine Top 20 players set to compete. This strong field will provide a challenging environment for all participants, including Rybakina, as they prepare for the French Open.
