The draw for the 2026 Qatar TotalEnergies Open has set up a potential early clash between top seed Iga Swiatek and defending champion Amanda Anisimova in the top half. Elena Rybakina headlines the bottom half as the tournament begins amid several high-profile withdrawals. Six top-10 players feature in the stacked field starting February 8 in Doha, Qatar.
Amanda Anisimova's former coach Rick Vleeshouwers has expressed regret over skipping practice before her Wimbledon final loss last year. In a recent interview, he revealed that fatigue from her semifinal win against Aryna Sabalenka left the American unable to compete effectively. Iga Swiatek went on to win the final 6-0, 6-0.
