Nadia Petrova and Katarina Srebotnik were the defending champions,^[1] but they decided not to participate together. Petrova was scheduled to play alongside Bethanie Mattek-Sands, but the team withdrew before the first round due to Mattek-Sands's hip injury. Srebotnik teamed up with Květa Peschke, but they lost in the quarterfinals to Cara Black and Sania Mirza.

Wildcards Martina Hingis and Sabine Lisicki defeated Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina 4–6, 6–4, [10–5] in the final to claim their first title together. The champions saved 7 match points in the quarterfinals. With the victory, Lisicki claimed her third doubles title overall, while it was the 38th for Hingis, and the first since her second professional comeback in the summer of 2013.
