The Wuhan Open marked International Women's Day on Friday by becoming the most prestigious pro tournament to have female co-directors.
Veteran tennis professional Brenda Perry will join Li Qiuping in overseeing the $2.8 million WTA premier 5 tournament, which runs Sept 22-28.
At last year's Wuhan Open, rising star Wang Qiang made history by becoming the first Chinese player to reach the semifinals, which was also her first appearance in a premier 5 tournament.
