List of all players to have qualified for the 2025 WTA Finals in Riyadh

Jasmine Paolini

Jasmine Paolini had a breakthrough season in 2024, where she made it to the finals of multiple Grand Slams. While her career graph has gone slightly down in 2025, she is still one of the best WTA players on the circuit. On her day, the Italian is capable of beating anyone in the world.

Madison Keys

Madison Keys won the Australian Open 2025 in what was one of the biggest shocking results in the recent past. In the process, the American stopped Aryna Sabalenka from completing a hat-trick of AO wins. She will be one of the favorites to win the WTA Finals in 2025.

Jessica Pegula

Jessica Pegula is in the Steffi Graf group and has some of the top players alongside her. However, she can be one of the dark horses to pull off the biggest win of her career. While she hasn't been able to claim as many wins against the top WTA stars lately, Pegula can be threatening.

Elena Rybakina

Elena Rybakina is one of the best players in the world on the Grass Courts. Unfortunately, since winning her Wimbledon 2022 title, the Kazak star hasn't been able to win a Grand Slam since then. She will be hoping to make a huge impact in Saudi Arabia.

Coco Gauff

Coco Gauff has been one of the best players in the world at a young age. The American has two Grand Slam titles in three seasons and is only getting better. The young star will be one of the favorites to win the title. Gauff is in the Steffi Graf group and has been in decent form coming to the tournament.

Amanda Anisimova

Amanda Anisimova has improved massively in the recent past. She is one of the four Americans in the WTA Final 2025 and hopes to make a huge impact. Anisimova came short in two Grand Slam finals in the 2-25 season but proved she is here to stay.

Aryna Sabalenka

Aryna Sabalenka has been arguably the best WTA star in the last three seasons. The Belarusian has four Grand Slam titles to her name since 2023. She is ranked first in the world and will be the major favorite to win the title. Sabalenka is in the Steffi Graf group and has what it takes to win the title.

Iga Swiatek

Along with Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek has been at the top of her game in the WTA for quite some time. Regarded as a clay bully at one stage in her career, Swiatek has come a long way, especially after winning her first Wimbledon title in 2025. The Welsh is in the Serena Williams group.
