The WTA Finals Singles & Doubles format is a round robin first stage with the eight players (singles) and pairs (doubles) split into two groups of four and each player/pair in their group playing each other once. All WTA Finals matches are best of three sets and the top two players/pair in each group after their three matches proceed to the Semi Finals where the winner of each group will play the runner up from the other group.
