Rolland Gararos Champion Coco Goff comes as one of the main contenders, but she never moved forward in London.
Last year’s runner-up Jasmine Paolini, Italian World No. Four, one step will be better this year.
Meanwhile, former world number one IGA Swiatek – who defeated Paolini in a bad Homberg on Friday – and 2022 Wimbledon Champion Elena Rybikina would also be expected to challenge.
British number one Emma Redukanu leads home hopes in women’s draw, where she joins Katie Baulter and Sonay Kartal, who has spent both of them in the top 50 in the world.
However, Redukanu has been handed over a difficult draw. Former champion market Wondrasova is a potentially second round of rival, while Sabalenka is likely to wait for three rounds.
