How has the Wuhan Open - in only its second year of existence - managed to attract almost all of the world's best female tennis stars?

Nineteen of the world's top 20 players started the event that is being held in the home city of China's best ever player - Li Na.

Fabrice Chouquet, is the international tournament director for the WTA - the governing body of women's tennis - and he told Sport Today's Steve Crossman that the Wuhan Open has become Li Na's legacy to tennis in China.
