Bianca Andreescu is set to return to Mexico later this month after being announced as one of the headline players for the 2026 Querétaro Open.
The Canadian will compete at the WTA 125 tournament at Club Campestre de Querétaro from October 26 to November 1, according to the event organizers.
The entry gives Andreescu another competitive opportunity as she continues rebuilding her ranking and match form following several injury interruptions in recent seasons.

Andreescu added to Querétaro Open field
The Querétaro Open announcement identifies Andreescu as a former world No. 4 and the 2019 US Open champion.
The tournament will be held in Querétaro, Mexico, and is scheduled to run across seven days on the WTA 125 circuit.
Andreescu’s participation will give the event a notable Canadian connection and add a former major champion to its second edition.
The tournament organizers also highlighted her previous results in Mexico, including a 2019 semifinal appearance at the Abierto Mexicano in Acapulco and a 2022 Guadalajara victory over two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitová.
Bianca Andreescu is rebuilding her position
Andreescu entered 2026 well outside the position she held during her breakthrough season, but she has gradually moved back up the rankings through a mixture of WTA and lower-level competition.
The WTA listed Andreescu at No. 172 in singles as of October 8, 2026, with a 27-16 record for the season.
Her 2026 results include a runner-up finish at the Austin WTA 125 event, according to her official WTA profile.
That result followed a period in which Andreescu returned to competition after injuries limited her availability and disrupted her ranking progress.
The WTA profile records a nine-month absence caused by a back injury before her return at the 2024 French Open, as well as additional injury-related interruptions during her career.
A return to the setting of earlier success
Mexico has been an important location in Andreescu’s career, even though her most significant titles came elsewhere.
She reached the semifinals in Acapulco in 2019, the same season in which she won Indian Wells, the Canadian tournament in Toronto and the US Open.
Her US Open victory over Serena Williams made Andreescu the first Canadian woman to win a major singles title in the Open Era, while her 2019 season ended with a career-best No. 5 ranking.
Andreescu also reached a career-high ranking of No. 4 and remains one of the most accomplished Canadian singles players of her generation.
The Querétaro event will therefore provide more than another tournament entry: it will be another chance to convert her experience and past success into ranking progress during the closing stretch of the season.
What comes next for Andreescu
Andreescu’s appearance in Querétaro is scheduled for the final week of October, leaving time for the draw, seedings and qualifying arrangements to be confirmed closer to the tournament.
Her place in the field could become important for her year-end ranking, particularly if she can advance deep into the draw and add another strong result to her 2026 record.
The WTA 125 level has also become part of Andreescu’s return path as she looks to collect matches and ranking points outside the biggest events on the calendar.
For Canadian fans, the tournament offers another opportunity to follow the former US Open champion as she works toward a more consistent place on the WTA Tour.
