 What's going on everybody welcome back to another draw preview and we have a big event this week at WTA 500 event on the grass courts in Eastbourne the Eastbourne International And it's got a big list of players playing and some top 10 players playing but some players have pulled out So let's go to the withdrawal list only a couple of players are put out of this one We have Sophia Kenan. She's not playing and Joe Contra is also not playing this one Oh, I start at the top of the drawer now with eight seeds in this one No seed gets a buy in the first round number one seed Sabalenka She gets a qualifier in the first round the winner of that match will play the winner of kudima tova Versus risk in the second round. We've got another qualifier against Kiki Burton's winner of that match takes on either Donna Vekic or the number five seed pliskeva So a big match there circle that one is one to watch then we've got the number three seed on dress cue taking on Madison keys And that is a big big match up circle that one is one to watch as well Winner of that match takes on either conservate or kuznets over in the second round Then we've got a qualifier versus the wildcard stozer winner of that match takes on either martich Or the number six seed bench itch in the second round to the players I'm looking out for this week. Obviously sabalenka. She's got the game for grass She's got a big serve the big hitting ground stroke So I'd expect good things from her this week Also looking out for Bianca on dress cue who last week had a pretty tough week lost on a birthday on the grass courts So hopefully now she can get a little bit more form this week going into wimbledon And I think she's got a game that can really suit the grass and also looking out for bench itch as well Because bench itch has just made the final of an event this week as well on grass So she is in great form on the grass court So really interested to see how she can back that up in eastbourne this week going to the bottom half of the draw now We've got the number eight seed and the french open finalists pavlicenkova up against the wildcard Ostapenko in the first round interesting to see how that one goes especially with pavlicenkova Winner of that match takes on either jabour or von drosova in the second round Then we've got kazikina taking on a qualifier winner of that match takes on either the wildcard Watson or the number four seeds fiontech Then we've got another blockbuster first round match the number seven seed mertens taking on the unseeded coco golf Circle that one as one to watch winner of that match is going to play a qualifier No matter what because two qualies are going at it in the first round Then we've got the wildcard dart taking on rebacchina winner of that match takes on either bedossa Or the number two seeds fidelina who are going at it in the first round and again Circle that one as one to watch so the players i'm looking out for egas fiontech Now she did win junior wimbledon a few years ago And we all know that she's a french open champion So really interested to see how her game does on the grass this year also pavlicenkova How can she back up that final at the french open only a couple of weeks ago See if she can play on the grass courts as well and convert that form onto the grass and also coco golf really interested To see how she does because two years ago on the grass courts of wimbledon She really broke out and that's when she really made a name for herself So i'm really interested to see how she does on the grass as well this week leading into wimbledon where she did Make a name for herself a couple of years ago There you have it eastbound international the biggest event going on this week leading into wimbledon and a lot of big Names playing remember wimbledon starts this time next week. So these players that make the final They're going to have a really quick turnaround to go to london and then play wimbledon in that first round on the first couple of days Let me know down in the comments below Who are you most looking forward to watching this week? And who do you think's going to win this event because it's still very relatively unknown If the clay court players that did well at the french open can play on the grass because it's a completely different surface Also the players that played last week like on dress cue ben chitch How are they going to do again this week after having mixed results? Obviously on dress cue losing and ben chitch winning So again, it's going to be a tough one to pick this week because no one really has that much form Because we haven't had that much grass court tennis But i'm going to go with fiontech to win this one Like i said, she did win junior wimbledon only a couple of years ago and her game is such an aggressive style And very well suited to the grass courts So i'm very excited to see how her power translates and she has a pretty good draw as well So i'm going to pick her to win this one again Let me know down in the comments boy. Who do you think is going to win this week? So the last preparations for all the top players this week happening in eastbourne
