The lineup for the 2024 WTA Finals (2-9 November) is complete.

For the first time, the final showpiece tennis event of the women's season will take place in Riyadh, which will see the best eight women’s singles players and doubles pairs fight it out.

Qualifying points are taken from performances at the Grand Slams, WTA 1000 tournaments and other WTA tournaments. Results from the Olympic Games Paris 2024 do not count towards players’ points tallies and totals.

Here are the singles and doubles players who have qualified for the WTA Finals in November.

2024 WTA Finals - Qualified singles players

Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova guaranteed a Finals spot as a 2024 Grand Slam winner subject to a top 20 finish.

First to qualify was world number one Iga Swiatek. The Pole has had a stellar year and is pushing to finish 2024 on top, having won the French Open and Olympic bronze both at the Stade Roland-Garros this year.

Now on top in 2024 and well ahead of the rest of the pack is Aryna Sabalenka, who is enjoying the best tennis of her life.

She has won two of her three Grand Slams in 2024 and is chasing a return to the top of the WTA rankings for the first time since September 2023.

Coco Gauff booked her spot in October at a third consecutive Finals, in a month where she won her second WTA 1000 title at the China Open. Jasmine Paolini's rise to fourth in the 2024 rankings has secured her debut in Riyadh.

Elena Rybakina and Jessica Pegula, who have spent the year consistently in the top six, will be heading to the WTA Finals for a shot at silverware.

Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen was the final singles player to book her spot as one of the top seven ranked players, leaving Krejcikova to assure her spot thanks to her ranking.

Pegula withdrew during the finals ahead of her final match, replaced by ninth seed and alternate Daria Kasatkina.

2024 WTA Finals - qualified doubles players

Paolini has now qualified for both the women’s singles and women’s doubles finals, the latter alongside partner Sara Errani, who she won Olympic gold with at Paris 2024.

First to qualify in the doubles tournament was pair Lyudmyla Kichenok and Jelena Ostapenko. They were soon joined by Hsieh Su-Wei and Elise Mertens for the Finals in Saudi Arabia.

Both Wimbledon finalists are back in pursuit of silverware: second seeds Gabriela Dabrowski and Erin Routliffe, along with the SW19 champions, Katerina Siniakova and Taylor Townsend.

Desirae Krawczyk and Caroline Dolehide are the highest-ranked women's doubles duo from the US, with one title to their name in 2024.
