By defeating Jasmine Paolini at the WTA Finals, Aryna Sabalenka recorded her 60th win of the year, a feat she has achieved for the first time in her career.

But the world number one is not the only one with so many wins, as her great rival Iga Swiatek has 62. As revealed by Opta Ace, Swiatek and Sabalenka are the first duo since 2013 with Agnieszka Radwanska and Serena Williams to surpass 60 wins in a single season.

Although the Polish player currently has more wins than the Belarusian, it will unfortunately be impossible for her to hope to overtake her rival in the WTA rankings at the end of this 2025 season.

Sabalenka Aryna

1e, 10870 points

Swiatek Iga

very good year for Aryna

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
