The WTA Finals is a year-ending tournament organised by WTA where the top eight singles players and doubles teams based on their performance throughout the year. These eight players might not be ranked first to eighth on the WTA Rankings although there might be quite a few overlaps.
Earlier called the WTA Tour Championships, is one of the most important women’s tennis competitions on the WTA calendar other than the four majors.
First played in 1972, the WTA Finals adopted its current format in 2003 in which the top eight players in the world are divided into two groups of four each. Each of these four feature in three matches in a round-robin format and the top two players at the end of that qualify for the semifinals.
The semifinals are followed by the final.
While the Grand Slam winners earn 2000 points for a championship victory, a player winning the WTA Finals can earn up to 1500 points depending on the number of matches she wins.

What Happened in the 2024 Edition of the WTA Finals?
Since 2014, when Serena Williams won her last title at the WTA Finals, this competition has seen 10 different winners. The last of those winners was Cori Gauff who lifted this trophy in 2024 by defeating surprise finalist Qinwen Zheng.
Gauff was forced to overcome an opening set loss against Zheng and was a break down in the second set before winning 3-6, 6-4, 7-6 (2) in an error-strewn but a pulsating final.
It was her third title of the season having also clinched the Auckland Open and China Open earlier in the year.
Earlier, the American had stunned Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals, carving out a straight-set win over the top seeded player.
In what turned out to be a bit of a shock, Gauff’s victory over the world number two Iga Swiatek during the round-robin stages of the tournament proved to be the Pole’s downfall as she crashed out of the tournament. Gauff was joined by Barbora Krejcikova in the last four.
The other group saw Sabalenka and Zheng make the semifinals at the expense of Elena Rybakina and Jasmine Paolini.
What Happened in the 2023 Edition of the WTA Finals?
Such has been the nature of this competition that the last player to win more than one title at the WTA Finals was Serena Williams in 2014 – it was her third title. Since then, there have eight editions of this tournament and eight different female players have won the singles tournament.
In 2023, it was Iga Swiatek who lifted the singles trophy by defeating Jessica Pegula 6-1, 6-0 in the final.
Swiatek went undefeated in the tournament, beating Cori Gauff, Ons Jabeur and Marketa Vondrousova in the round-robin phase of the tournament before routing the top seeded Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals. In the other semis, Pegula overcame Cori Gauff 6-2, 6-1 to enter the final.
The doubles title was won by Laura Siegemund and Vera Zvonareva who defeated Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Ellen Perez in the title-decider. Gauff and Pegula, who had also played in the singles draw, were the top seeds in the doubles but lost all their group matches to crash out of the competition.
