Caroline Garcia was the reigning champion,[3] but did not qualify this year. No previous champions qualified for this year's tournament, guaranteeing a first-time WTA Finals champion.
Elena Rybakina and Markéta Vondroušová made their singles debuts at the event; they were eliminated in the group stage. Karolína Muchová also would have made her debut, but withdrew due to an ongoing wrist injury; she was replaced by Maria Sakkari.
Pegula was the first player to face the world No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 at a single event since the WTA rankings began in 1975.[4]
