Welcome to Doha, Qatar! This week we move to the second middle-Eastern event of the year, which is at the venue of the host of the WTA Championships for the previous three years. The finalists of that event - Kveta Peschke and Katarina Srebotnik - are playing this Premier event too as the top seeds. Peschke is also the most recent winner of the doubles edition of this event, having won with the now-retired Rennae Stubbs in 2008. Also in action are popular pairings of Daniela Hantuchova and Agnieszka Radwanska as well as Sania Mirza with Elena Vesnina and others! The week ahead is sure to be exciting! Vote now as the tournament kicks off!
