In addition, has been confirmed that world No.2 Anett Kontaveit has withdrawn from the tournament as she stated: “Unfortunately I won’t be able to come and play in Eastbourne this year. I still need to recover and take care of my health after my infection to Covid recently. I didn’t feel good on court lately so I prefer not to take any risk and come back when I will be at 100%. Hope to see you all in Eastbourne in 2023.”
