Women's tournament structure.
Premier events.
Premier events for women form the most prestigious level of events on the Women's Tennis Association Tour after the Grand Slam tournaments.
These events offer the largest rewards in terms of points and prize money.
Within the Premier category are Premier Mandatory, Premier 5, and Premier tournaments.
The Premier events were introduced in 2009 replacing the previous Tier I and II tournament categories.
Currently four tournaments are Premier Mandatory, five tournaments are Premier 5, and twelve tournaments are Premier.
The first tiering system in women's tennis was introduced in 1988.
At the time of its creation, only two tournaments, the Lipton International Players Championships in Florida and the German Open in Berlin, comprised the Tier I category.
The WTA Swiss Open was a women's professional tennis tournament played in a number of locations in Switzerland.
The event was held from 1899–1994, and was played on outdoor clay courts.
The tournament underwent a name change in 1986, when it was titled the European Open until its discontinuation.
It formed part of the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) Tour.
When the WTA introduced the tiering format to its circuit, the event gradually moved up, from being a Tier V in 1988–1989, a Tier IV from 1990–1992, and a Tier III for its remaining years.
Two Swiss players won the event: Manuela Maleeva (who formerly represented Bulgaria) won the singles in 1991, and Christiane Jolissaint, who won the doubles on three occasions: 1983, 1984, and 1988.
Maleeva holds the record, along with Chris Evert, for most singles wins; both players won the event three times, and Maleeva finished runner-up a further three occasions.
