Meanwhile, with her current WTA ranking (120), it will be tough for her to get a direct entry into tournaments and Grand Slam events. She needs to rely on wild cards to get an entry.

The young Canadian is all set to make a return on clay in Stuttgart after accepting a wild card. The main draw of the Stuttgart Open gets underway on April 18.
