Entry List 2025 Abu Dhabi Open featuring Elena Rybakina, Paula Badosa and Leylah Fernandez
WTA
The 2025 Abu Dhabi Open will see several talented WTA stars travel to the United Arab Emirates for one of the newer additions to the calendar, which is scheduled to run from February 3-8, 2025.
A WTA 500 event, the Abu Dhabi Open is a hardcourt tournament that features a 32-player singles field and a 16-team doubles draw. Former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina won the title at last year's edition, and the Kazakh star will be returning to defend her title.
Badosa hoping to ride momentum into Abu Dhabi
Former World No.2 Paula Badosa would like to hit the ground running after her impressive performance at the 2025 Australian Open, as the Spaniard has been announced as one of the top seeds in Abu Dhabi. Canadian tennis star Leylah Fernandez will also be competing at the event.
Controversial American tennis star Danielle Collins is another top-ranked player set to compete at the Abu Dhabi Open. Joining her is compatriot Amanda Anisimova, who has looked impressive in her return to the WTA tour following a long bout with injury.
Russians Daria Kasatkina, Ekaterina Alexandrova and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova will be competing at the event, alongside Brazilian Beatriz Haddad Maia and former Roland Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko. Below is the list of entrants.

- That was a hideous display. Condescending Collins is no friend to tennis. She said she was retiring and should follow through. Sooner the better for the sport. BTW: As I read it in the WTA Rulebook 2025, it seems she broke at least two regulations in her post-match childish behavior. BTW: There are reasons she has no sponsors... and she displayed several of those reasons today.mandoist16-01-2025
