Kim Clijsters says she is no longer feeling pain in her foot, suggesting she is more likely to play the season-ending event in Doha.

"Foot is healing well, still a little cut but not painful anymore," Clijsters wrote on her Twitter account on Tuesday.

The U.S. Open champion pulled out of last week's event in Beijing with an infected cut that developed after an operation to remove a mole on the sole of her foot.
