FWTA Croatian Indoors!

Welcome to the first edition of the Croatian Indoors. This years field is highlighted by the appearance of three top ten players. It is sure to be a great tournament.

The top seed is Amanda Coetzer who will try to redeem herself after falling out in the round robin portion of the World Championships.

Second seeded Jelena Dokic will hope to wind up her stellar season with a win close to her home country of Yugoslavia.

Hometown favorite Iva Majoli hopes to end her season with a win after a number of bad first round losses. She is seeded third.

The fourth seed, Venus Williams, has had a great season which ended with a win at the World Championships in Syndney.
