Canada's Carol Zhao Gets Special Spot in Final National Bank Open

Carol Zhao is 31 years old and said this is her last season.

Carol Zhao got a special spot in the final National Bank Open of her career.

Carol Zhao is from Richmond Hill, Ontario, and said 2026 is her last year on the WTA Tour after starting in 2016.

Tennis Canada said Zhao and Ariana Arseneault got the last two special spots for the women's singles tournament starting next Saturday in Toronto.

They join Venus Williams and other Canadians like Bianca Andreescu in the main tournament.

The top player, Sabalenka, is in the 96-player list for the National Bank Open in Toronto.

Tennis Canada is happy to give Ariana and Carol special spots, saying Ariana is improving and Carol is a respected Canadian tennis player.

Tennis Canada is thrilled to give Carol a chance to play at home one last time.

Tennis Canada also gave special spots to teams like Andreescu and Cross, and the Fernandez sisters.

Victoria Mboko, who won last year's title, will miss this year's tournament due to a knee injury.
