2013 Budapest Grand Prix Explained

The 2013 Budapest Grand Prix was a women's tennis tournament played on outdoor clay courts. It was the 19th edition of the Budapest Grand Prix, an International-level tournament on the 2013 WTA Tour. It took place at the Római Tennis Academy in Budapest, Hungary, from 8 to 14 July 2013. The organisers decided to hold the tournament despite the recent floods in Hungary, but canceled the qualifying rounds (the top four alternates entered the main draw automatically) and reduced the doubles draw from 16 teams to eight. Third-seeded Simona Halep won the singles title.
