Starting Monday, the season’s last WTA 1000 event will take place in Wuhan, China.
A loaded 56-player field is led by the top four players in the world: Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, and Amanda Anisimova. With three sports still up for grabs, the Wuhan Open is the final opportunity for athletes to secure a place in the season-ending WTA Finals.
Sabalenka has a 17-0 record going into this year’s competition and has won the Wuhan Open in 2018, 2019, and 2024 before. The Wuhan Open is a traditional one-week event with a smaller field than most of other 1000 tournaments.
