The Tournament has been upgraded to WTA 500 event.

Seoul’s tennis scene has a big change coming. The WTA Korea Open 2024 scheduled from September 16 has become a WTA 500 event. This upgrade puts Seoul in the same league as other well-known tournaments around the world. The WTA Korea Open started in 2004 and has grown a lot since then.

It began as a smaller WTA International event, changed to a WTA 125 tournament for a short time during the pandemic, and now it’s moving up to the top level. The 2024 tournament will have 32 singles players and 16 doubles teams competing at the Seoul Olympic Park Tennis Center. Last year, Jessica Pegula won the singles title, while Marie Bouzkova and Bethanie Mattek-Sands took the doubles crown.

This year, however, Jessica Pegula will be missing the action, but the tournament still attracts top tier players like Daria Kasatkina, Liudmila Samsonova and Marta Kostyuk.
