The WTA Rankings have been updated after the WTA Finals which brings the curtain down on the WTA season with Aryna Sabalenka as Year End No.1.
Sabalenka finishes the season with 9,416 points which is a 1,046 point advantage over Iga Swiatek. She will likely be on top until after the 2025 Australian Open and longer if she manages to retain her title again.
But it is in fact Coco Gauff who is the big winner. After what was heralded to be a pretty poor season, she ends it top three and with the WTA Finals title. She defeated Zheng Qinwen over the weekend picking up 1,300 points in the process. She solidifies third after even going down to around World No.7 at some point recently.
Zheng Qinwen was also a big gainer as she again reaches a career high of World No.5 with Elena Rybakina and Jessica Pegula dropping one spot each.
Paolini, Emma Navarro and Mirra Andreeva who are 4th, 8th and 16th all end the season as the big winners with career high spots in the top 20 set. Diana Shnaider too who sits thirteenth is another who has had an expert season and those players are the ones likely to benefit from ranking drops from some of the faltering big names around them next year.
