Results in the 52-week window
960 points expire in the next 13 weeks — 500 of them at Korea Open.
How the count works
The 17 results carrying the ranking, biggest contribution first. 12 slots are mandatory — Grand Slams and WTA 1000s count whatever they scored; the rest are the best remaining results. A result expires 52 weeks after the event ended, so anything played before Sep 2025has already dropped out. Expiring points only cost the total what a replacement result doesn't win back.
One empty slot
The ranking counts the best 18 results and only 17 exist, so there is nothing to displace — the next event played add their full value, whatever it is.
What it takes to reach No. 7
174 points — any one of these does it:
- Win a WTA 250 title250
- Reach a WTA 500 semi-final195
- Reach a WTA 1000 quarter-final215
Where the points come from — by surface
78% of the itemized points come on hard courts — and all 4 results expiring in the next 13 weeks are hard-court ones.
