Peters Township native Alison Riske will be back on the tennis court — albeit with relatively little money and no WTA ranking points on the line.

Riske, ranked No. 19 in the world, will join American teen and 28th-ranked Amanda Anisimova, No. 51 Danielle Collins and No. 56 Ajla Tomljanovic at the made-for-TV event scheduled for Friday through Sunday.

The event willl be a round-robin with no spectators on a hard court at a private home in West Palm Beach, Fla.

A year ago at this time, Anisimova was getting ready to play at the clay-court French Open, where she ended up reaching her first Grand Slam semifinal.

“It’s the closest thing we can get to competing nowadays,” Tomljanovic said on a video conference, “and I think we’ve all missed what we’ve known for all our lives, really.”

They will be playing on the same court — and with the same social-distancing and cleaning measures —used earlier this month for a four-man event won by Reilly Opelka.

The professional tours are on hiatus at least until late July because of the covid-19 outbreak.

The French Open, which was supposed to start Sunday in Paris, was postponed until September.
