Coco Gauff has been missing a big win recently, but she got it at the Wuhan Open, which is why she’s emerged at the top of the WTA Power Rankings heading into the final weeks of the season—where she played fantastic tennis last year, winning the WTA Finals.
Let’s see how the rest of the field stacks up and what we might expect from the WTA Tour in the final weeks of the 2025 season.
1. Coco Gauff
WTA Rank: 3
WTA Race: 3
Coco Gauff has had a strong year overall. She’s consistently been ranked #3, behind Sabalenka and Swiatek, but winning the Wuhan Open now puts her at the top. She still struggles with her serve, but the pressure she brings to every rally makes her nearly impossible to beat. Until someone dethrones her, she’ll stay at the top of this list.
2. Amanda Anisimova
WTA Rank: 4
WTA Race: 4
Amanda Anisimova proved during this Asian swing that her recent form wasn’t an anomaly but a new reality. She played fantastic tennis in Beijing, defeating everyone in her path to claim the trophy. She chose not to play in Wuhan, understandably taking some time to rest, but her trophy run in Beijing propels her to number 2 for now. If she keeps this up, she has a strong chance to climb to the top of this list.
3. Aryna Sabalenka
WTA Rank: 1
WTA Race: 1
Aryna Sabalenka won the US Open but wasn’t able to maintain that level in Asia. She only played in Wuhan, where she’s had a tremendous track record in the past, but this time she was stopped by Jessica Pegula in the semi-finals. Still, what she’s done this year is strong enough to keep her at #3 on this list.
