Former world number one and 2009 AEGON International champion Caroline Wozniacki is set for a return to Eastbourne after confirming her entry into next month’s tournament at Devonshire Park.

Wozniacki was victorious in the tournament three years ago when she defeated France’s Virginie Razzano 7-6(5), 7-5. The Danish star, who is currently ranked at No.6 in the world rankings, is one of a host of top ranked players from the women’s WTA Tour to accept a place in the tournament, which will take place from 16-23 June.

The news of Wozniacki’s involvement follows hot on the heels of Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, reigning AEGON International champion Marion Bartoli and 2008 French Open champion Ana Ivanovic announcing their participation.
