We’re delighted to welcome Romanian tennis star Patricia Maria Tig to this year’s Liverpool International Tennis Tournament.
A professional since 2015, Patricia has claimed 23 singles and 10 doubles titles across the WTA and ITF tours. Her Grand Slam breakthrough came at Roland Garros 2020, where she reached the third round and climbed to a career-high WTA ranking of 56 the same year.
After taking time out in 2018 to become a mother and in 2022 due to injury, Patricia has shown incredible determination to return to the top of the game. Her recent performances have earned her Grand Slam qualifying spots, including at Wimbledon 2025—and we’re thrilled that Liverpool will play a part in her journey back to the top.
Tournament Director Anders Borg says:
“We’re so pleased Patricia has chosen Liverpool as part of her Wimbledon preparations. It’s never easy combining motherhood with the demands of the WTA circuit, but we’ll ensure she has the perfect build-up on our beautiful centre court.”
Patricia joins Alonso Abril in our growing line-up for this year’s tournament. The Spanish player, fresh from the U.S. college circuit, is now coached by Samuel Porreh Jalloh and ready to make her mark on the pro scene. She’ll face hometown favourite Abi Redman in what promises to be a thrilling match-up between rising talents.
With a mix of international stars and local contenders, this year’s Liverpool International Tennis Tournament is shaping into one of our most exciting editions yet.
