Simona Halep will face Ons Jabeur in the first round in Beijing.
Halep
Simona is not having a fantastic moment. In fact, the world no.1 has lost 3 consecutive matches and 6 straight sets after she was unable to convert a championship point in the Cincinnati final against Kiki Bertens. In addition, Simona suffered from a back injury last Sunday when she was training with Petra Kvitova in Wuhan.
Seeded no.1, Simona is among the top favorites to win the tournament in Beijing if she is fully fit.

Jabeur
Ranked no.113, Ons had to gain the right to play in the main draw after winning a couple of impressing matches in the qualifications against Monica Puig (6-3 6-2) and Tatjana Maria (6-3 6-2). She has managed to achieve a world no. 83 (career high) last year.
