Notes: (1) Dementieva opens against Peng, and (3) Wickmayer against the Osaka finalist Schnyder; wildcards went to Dementieva, Russian Yulia Putintseva, Luxembourg’s Mandy Minella, and France’s Virginie Razzano; in last year’s final Francesca Schiavone defeated Olga Govortsova.

Earlier in the week the Serb was forced to rush off the court during a match, receiving a game penalty for a gastric bathroom explosion she blamed on eating yogurt before the match.

Notes: (1) Federer likely to open against Dent after a bye, with Swiss countryman Wawrinka waiting in the quarters; (7) Bellucci starts against (WC) Blake, and (6) F-Lo in an early tester against Mayer; Federer only 1-1 career in Stockholm (played once in 2000)

Andy Murray won easily over Roger Federer in the Shanghai final.
