Welcome to Paris, France! It is time to briefly stop in the City of Love for one of the remaining European indoor tournaments of the year. This stop certainly occupies a unique event on the calendar but manages to provide exciting matches year after year, and therefore marks a memorable place on the WTA schedule. The top seeds this year are the Italian stalwarts Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci but they will face stiff competition right from the first round against home favorites Alizé Cornet and Kristina Mladenovic. Meanwhile, the second seeds are a new team so will bring an interesting card to the table as Czech Andrea Hlaváčková partners American veteran Liezel Huber. The third seeds will also be strong this week as popular German Julia Görges teams with Romanian star Monica Niculescu, while the fourth seeds see Pole Alicja Rosolska partner Czeck Květa Peschke, who has just returned this year from a long injury layoff. With such teams in action, we will surely be seeing some fascinating indoor tennis from the French capital! Vote now at the 21e Open GDF Suez in Paris!
