Guadalajara Open 2026 WTA Draw & Bracket
Main Draw
The Guadalajara Open 2026 women’s singles draw contained 28 players.
Because this is a 28-player WTA 500 draw, the top four seeds receive first-round byes and begin their tournaments in the Round of 16.
The four players receiving byes were top seed Marta Kostyuk, defending champion Iva Jovic, Sara Bejlek and Diane Parry.
Four qualifiers and four main-draw wildcards completed the field. The tournament is played on outdoor hard courts at the Centro Panamericano de Tenis.
Seeded Players
- Marta Kostyuk
- Iva Jovic
- Sara Bejlek
- Diane Parry
- Janice Tjen
- Cristina Bucsa
- Magdalena Frech
- Liudmila Samsonova
Kostyuk entered as the No. 1 seed, while Jovic returned as the defending champion after winning the tournament as a 17-year-old in 2025.
Wildcards
- Bianca Andreescu
- Loïs Boisson
- Sloane Stephens
- Taylor Townsend
The wildcard group gives the draw considerable depth. Andreescu and Stephens are former Grand Slam champions, while Boisson was a Roland Garros semifinalist in 2025. Townsend was meant to arrive in Guadalajara after another strong US Open campaign, but she did not make it due to injury.
