The conclusion of the 2025 US Open has sparked interesting movements in the 'WTA Race' to determine the top eight female tennis players of the year who would qualify for the WTA Finals in Riyadh. In addition to Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek has also secured her spot by surpassing the required 5780 points threshold (7533). However, with the 2000 championship points from New York, the Belarusian has widened the gap to 2077 points.
Coco Gauff remains in third place and is 600 points away from sealing her spot. Similarly, Amanda Anisimova, with her US Open final, now sits in fourth place. From the fifth to seventh spots, where Madison Keys, Jessica Pegula, and Mirra Andreeva are, the Finals are also within reach. The eighth spot is the most sought after, featuring Elena Rybakina, Jasmine Paolini, or Ekaterina Alexandrova.

That Novak Djokovic is in the final stages of his career is a fact. But it remains to be seen when and where he would decide to retire. So far, the Serbian has not spoken directly about it, but John McEnroe shared his prediction on ESPN microphones: "In a way, it wouldn't surprise me if he stopped. But I would be surprised if he tried to continue for another year. That would be my bet. He has been the world's third-best player this year. That's what it's been," stated the former American player.
