The 2025 WTA Finals will be the professional women's championship tennis tournament run by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA). It will be the 54th edition of the singles event and the 49th edition of the doubles competition and will take place between 1 and 8 November. The tournament will be contested by the eight highest-ranked singles players and doubles teams of the 2025 WTA Tour. It will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This will be the second time that Saudi Arabia will host the tournament.
Tournament
Qualifying
Eight players/teams to compete in singles/doubles. To qualify, players/teams have to play a minimum of eight WTA 1000 or WTA 500 tournaments during the season. Players/teams are qualified in the following sequence:
- Ranked top seven in the leaderboard;
- The highest-ranked current-year Grand Slam winning player/team ranked from eighth to twentieth;
- The second-highest-ranked current-year Grand Slam winning player/team ranked from eighth to twentieth, if one player/team ranked in the top seven withdraws;
- The next player who is ranked eighth or below.
In the singles, point totals are calculated by combining point totals from eighteen tournaments (excluding ITF and WTA 125 tournaments). Of these eighteen tournaments, a player's results from the following events are included:
- The four Grand Slam events;
- Six best mandatory WTA 1000 tournaments from the following seven events: Indian Wells, Miami, Madrid, Rome, Toronto/Montreal, Cincinnati and Beijing;
- The best mandatory WTA 1000 tournament from the following three events: Doha, Dubai and Wuhan;
- (for the players who played the main draw of least two such tournaments) the best seven results from any other mandatory WTA 1000, WTA 500 and WTA 250 tournaments.
In the doubles, point totals are calculated by any combination of twelve tournaments throughout the year. Unlike in the singles, this combination does not need to include results from the Grand Slams or WTA 1000 tournaments.
Format
Both the singles and doubles event features eight players/teams in a round-robin event, split into two groups of four.
Over the first six days of competition, each player/team meets the other three players/teams in her group, with the top two in each group advancing to the semifinals. The first-placed player/team in one group meets the second-placed player/team in the other group, and vice versa. The winners of each semifinal meet in the championship match.
Round robin tie-breaking methods
The final standings are made using these methods:
- Greatest number of match wins
- Greatest number of matches played
- Head-to-head results if only two players are tied, or if three players are tied then:
- a. If three players each have the same number of wins, a player having played less than all three matches is automatically eliminated and the player advancing to the single-elimination competition is the winner of the match-up of the two remaining tied players.
- b. Highest percentage of sets won
- c. Highest percentage of games won
