Belinda Bencic's return to the top level continues. The Swiss, who gave birth to her first child in April, has been making a comeback in recent weeks.

She represented her country at the Billie Jean King Cup 2024 against Serbia, winning her singles match against Lola Radivojevic (6-2, 6-2).

In order to get back into the competitive swing of things for next year, the former world number 4 has received a wild-card to take part in the Angers tournament.

The 2024 edition will be held from December 2 to 8. At the age of 27, she has fallen back to world number 910.
