Martina Hingis (July 18, 2013) -- Martina Hingis will be keeping busy this summer as she continues her return to WTA doubles competition.

Organizers at the New Haven Open at Yale event announced that Hingis will compete in the doubles draw at the WTA warm-up tournament prior to this year's US Open.

"I am looking forward to coming back to the New Haven Open to compete in doubles," Hingis said in a press release. "I feel in good shape at the moment after playing World Team Tennis. My competitive spirit is still very much alive and I love being out on court."

New Haven marks the second tournament at which Hingis is scheduled to play doubles this summer. The Southern California Open in Carlsbad, Calif., recently announced that Hingis would team up with Daniela Hantuchova there.

Hingis, who was a singles quarterfinalist in New Haven back in 2002, was a former No. 1 in both singles and doubles in her earlier career. Last weekend, she was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, Rhode Island.

The New Haven Open at Yale takes place August 16-24. To learn more, visit www.newhavenopen.com
