2023 Nottingham Open WTA Draw - Sakkari, Haddad Maia, Vekic & more

| by Zachary Wimer

The 2023 Nottingham Open will start the grass-court in the United Kingdom with the draw promising a lot of action.

Held from June 12th to 18th, one of the first two WTA 250 tournaments on the grass will welcome a lot of British players, but also the first-seeded Maria Sakkari who was awarded a wild card for the tournament.

After losing early in Rome, the Greek lost early also in Paris and turned her focus to the grass-court swing. In the first round of the competition, she will clash with Xiyu Wang from China, with a second-round opponent of the winner of this match being the winner of the meeting between Katie Swan and Alize Cornet.

The seventh-seeded Camila Giorgi will start against Madison Brengle from the United States, while no. 3 seed Magda Linette will face one of the qualifiers, with a possible second-round match against Tereza Martincova or home player Jodie Burrage.

Donna Vekic is another interesting name in the draw. The fourth-seeded Croatian will play against Cristina Bucsa in the first round, while no. 5 seed Anhelina Kalinina will start against Nuria Parrizas Diaz.

But the top favourite will surely be the second-seeded Beatriz Haddad Maia. The Brazilian recently made the semifinals at the Roland Garros and she will want to continue her good form also against Lesia Tsurenko in the first round of the 2023 Nottingham Open.
