Summary

82% Informative

Eleven of the world’s top 20 are playing in a WTA 500 event for a prize fund of 1 m.

British stars Emma Raducanu , Katie Boulter and Sonay Kartal are also in the draw.

The tournament also comes as British women's tennis is rising and spreading its wings.

Tickets still available, starting at 15 for ground passes and 20 for the Andy Murray Arena .

The LTA has increased prize money for the Queen’s tournament so that the players will be playing for a prize fund of around 1m, rather than the roughly 730,000 they usually do at WTA 500 events.

That is still about half what is on offer for the men's event.

LTA have pledged to have equal prize money at both tournaments by 2029 .
