ST. PETERSBURG, FL, USA - The WTA has released an update to the 2020 provisional Tour calendar, which features 21 tournaments, beginning with the 31° Palermo Ladies Open on August 3, 2020.
The 2020 provisional calendar now includes two additional WTA International events the week of August 10 - the Prague Open in the Czech Republic and the Top Seed Open presented by Bluegrass Orthopaedics in Lexington, marking the first WTA tournament to be held in Kentucky, USA.
