The women's season-ending championship for the top eight singles players and doubles teams, carrying the largest prize purse in women's tennis.

How to attend
Open to the public. Tickets sell through the official WTA Finals site by session, with round-robin sessions materially cheaper than the closing weekend. Because each session pairs two of the world's top eight, early-week tickets are the strongest value on the calendar. Note the host venue changed for 2026, so confirm the location before booking flights. There is no useful public transport in the Coachella Valley: hire a car or budget for rideshare.
Insider tip
The round-robin format means every early-week session features two top-eight players, so the cheapest tickets of the week deliver the same quality of tennis as the semi-finals.
