The WTA Finals, the season-ending tournament for the top eight women’s tennis players, has unveiled its draw for 2024. World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka and No. 2 Iga Swiatek will lead their respective round-robin groups.
Sabalenka, who regained the top ranking after winning the US Open and Dongfeng Voyah Wuhan Open, will headline the Purple Group. Joining her are No. 4 seed Jasmine Paolini, No. 5 seed Elena Rybakina, and No. 7 seed Zheng Qinwen.
Swiatek, the reigning WTA Finals champion, will lead the Orange Group. She will be joined by No. 3 seed Coco Gauff, No. 6 seed Jessica Pegula, and No. 8 seed Barbora Krejcikova.
Sabalenka, who won two Grand Slams in 2024, will be looking to avenge her loss to Swiatek in last year’s semifinals. Swiatek, who has won four Roland Garros titles, will be aiming to defend her WTA Finals crown.
The 2024 WTA Finals will be held at the King Saud University Indoor Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The tournament will run from November 2 to 9, with round-robin play beginning on Saturday, November 2.
