An der Spitze der von der WTA veröffentlichten Meldeliste steht die Dänin Caroline Wozniacki, die aktuelle Nummer 1 der Welt

Which German players committed to play here? Thank you!

[SAISAI-GOAT]

so this is an oversubsribed P700 tournament ... the tournament will have to increase prize money because they have 10 of the top 10

No, because the tournament – same as last year - didn’t agree to increase its prize money to USD 2,400 grand AND none of the Top 6 players opted out of their commitment (see WTA 2012 rulebook, p 122).
