When the main draw gets underway on Monday 21 June fans will be
treated to a host of Grand Slam winners and finalists pitched against each
other in the first round at Devonshire Park.
Recent Roland Garros finalist Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova will make
the switch from clay to grass and faces a difficult opponent in 2017 Roland
Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko.
2019 US Open champion Bianca Andreescu, making her debut in
Eastbourne, will take on 2017 US Open finalist Madison Keys.

Brit Heather Watson, fresh from her run to the semi finals in Birmingham.

Tsonga will open his Eastbourne account against Belarussian Egor
Garisimov. Fellow Frenchman and two-time Wimbledon semi finalist Richard

scored an impressive win over top seed, Soonwoo Kwon 46 62 63. The 22
year-old from Twickenham, Surrey is playing in his first ATP Tour event, but
did not let that phase him as he scored victory over the Korean ranked 79 in
the world. He will now face Australia’s James Duckworth for a place in
the main draw.
