Eastbourne's Johanna Konta headlines the women's entries at Devonshire Park for the LTA’s 2021 Viking International next month.
The British number one has enjoyed plenty of success at Devonshire Park making runs to the semifinals in both 2015 and 2016 and is excited to be playing at Eastbourne again.
She said:“I’m really excited to be back playing on the grass in Eastbourne once again.
“It’s a very special tournament for me and I have some amazing memories from Devonshire Park, which all start and end with the incredible atmosphere created by the crowds there.
"It’s absolutely fantastic news that we’ll have some fans allowed in to watch this year and I know all of the players will really appreciate having them back.”
