The race ranking is updated at the end of each tournament. It is dominated by world number one Iga Swiatek. The Polish player has already been assured for several weeks of participating in the Master at the end of the season.
Unlike the “classic” WTA ranking, which is updated every week by taking into account the points won over the previous 52 weeks, the WTA Race ranking only takes into account the points won during the current season.
Computerized since 1973, the WTA ranking is updated every Monday, except during Grand Slam tournaments since November 3, 1975. The WTA ranking, which follows the principles and rules decreed by the WTA, is cumulative over a period of 52 weeks, that is to say determined by the number of tournaments played during the 52 weeks as well as the best results obtained over this period and fixed at sixteen tournaments to determine the WTA ranking of a singles player.
This ranking includes the points obtained during the four Grand Slam tournaments, the points won during the Premier Mandatory category tournaments, those of the two best results among the Premier 5 category tournaments for players who are members of the top 20 and the points obtained at the Masters (tournament where the eight best players of the current season compete).
