8,316

World No. 2

Built from the best 18 results in the last 52 weeks, and all 18 slots are filled. A new result only adds points if it beats the smallest of them — 35 at Cincinnati Open.

That share is real points the tour awarded that this page can't attribute to a specific result: tournaments outside Setlex's catalogue, events below tour level, and draw-size differences the standard points table doesn't capture. It's shown as a segment rather than a footnote, so every share on this page is a share of the real total — nothing here quietly means “of the itemized subset”.

Results in the 52-week window

Sort

2,910 points expire in the next 13 weeks — 1,500 of them at WTA Finals, unless they're replaced.

How the count works

The 18 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 Aug 2025 has already dropped out.

What it takes to reach No. 1

That is 354 points, and with every slot full it has to come on top of the 35 it would displace. Any one of these does it:

  • Win a WTA 500 title500
  • Reach a WTA 1000 semi-final390
  • Reach a Grand Slam quarter-final430

Read off the points table this site already ships, against the live gap to Aryna Sabalenka. Assumes the players above stand still — the honest caveat, stated rather than modelled.

Where the points come from — by surface

Hard6,958
Clay405
Grass190

92% of the itemized points come on hard courts — and all 6 results expiring in the next 13 weeks are hard-court ones.

Keep it

Compare with Sabalenka

The points expiring above are dated, so this page says something different every time it's opened — that's the reason to come back to it.

Everything above is computed from what this page already loads: each event's points, level, surface and end date — expiry is just the end date plus 52 weeks — together with the published points table and the ranking list for the neighbours. Nothing is predicted and no probability is invented; the only assumption, stated on screen, is that rivals stand still.

Real results from tennis-api.com for the rolling window ending 2026-08-12. Rank and total points are the player's official WTA standing; each event's round and ranking points come from the real draw result. Editions outside the data window are absent, so the breakdown's reconciliation line absorbs any gap to the published total.
