Bali Girl: Davenport To Play Singles In September
August 21st, 2007
New mom Lindsay Davenport is set to return to the singles scene. The former World No. 1 will play her first singles tournament since last September when she competes in the Tier III Wismilak International in Bali, Sept. 10-16.
“I’ve enjoyed the tournament in the past and feel it’s the perfect place to begin playing singles again,” said the 31-year-old Davenport, who won the Bali title in 2005.
Davenport, who gave birth to son Jagger by Caesarian section on June 10, will play doubles with Lisa Raymond at the Pilot Pen in New Haven, Conn., Aug. 19-25. New Haven will mark Davenport’s first WTA Tour tournament appearance since she lost to then top-ranked Amélie Mauresmo in the quarterfinals of the Tier II Beijing tournament last September.
Jelena Jankovic, Patty Schnyder and Daniela Hantuchova have also committed to playing Bali.
