LOOK: From Petrova to Makarova - previous winners in Washington
Bethanie Mattek-Sands is the oldest singles player in the main draw, at the age of 33.
Third seed Naomi Osaka makes her debut in the main draw here.
Nineteen-year-old Caroline Dolehide is playing her first WTA main draw as a direct entrant.
Yulia Putintseva and Tatjana Maria have played each other four times before - but each encounter has been on clay. They have two wins apiece in the head-to-head.
Similarly, Mattek-Sands and Stephens have played each other five times before, stretching back over six years, and each time the clash has been on clay. The US Open champion leads the head-to-head by some margin, though - 4-1.
