Statistical information
[edit]These tables present the number of singles (S), doubles (D), and mixed doubles (X) titles won by each player and each nation during the season, within all the tournament categories of the 2025 WTA Tour: the Grand Slam tournaments, the year-end championships (the WTA Finals), the WTA Premier tournaments (WTA 1000 and WTA 500), and the WTA 250. The players/nations are sorted by:
- total number of titles (a doubles title won by two players representing the same nation counts as only one win for the nation);
- cumulated point value of those titles (one Grand Slam tournament win equaling two WTA 1000 wins, one year-end championships win equaling one-and-a-half WTA 1000 win, one WTA 1000 win equaling two WTA 500 wins, one WTA 500 win equaling two WTA 250 wins);
- a singles > doubles > mixed doubles hierarchy;
- alphabetical order (by family names for players).

Simona Halep announced her retirement from professional tennis on 4 February 2025 following her first-round loss against Lucia Bronzetti at the Transylvania Open. Halep turned professional in 2006 and made her top 100 debut in July 2010. She is a two-time Grand Slam champion, having won at the 2018 French Open and 2019 Wimbledon Championships, in addition to being a three-time Grand Slam finalist. Throughout her career, she won 24 singles titles and one doubles title. In October 2017, at the age of 26, she became the second-oldest woman to make her maiden ascension to world No. 1, a position she held for 64 weeks, and was the first Romanian woman to hold the ranking. Between January 2014 and July 2021, Halep spent 373 consecutive weeks ranked inside the top 10, making her streak the eighth longest in WTA history. In 2022, Halep tested positive for the banned substance roxadustat at the US Open and she was given a four-year ban from the sport in 2023 by the International Tennis Federation. But in February 2024, she filed a successful appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport, reducing her suspension to nine months, which she was deemed to have served. Halep made a brief return to tennis, but her comeback was interrupted by numerous injury setbacks, including recurring knee and shoulder pain, all of which preceded her retirement from the sport.[14][15][16]
Petra Kvitová joined the professional tour in 2006 and reached a career high ranking of No. 2 in singles in 31 October 2011. She won 31 career singles titles, including two Wimbledon titles. Kvitová announced her retirement on 19 June 2025, with the 2025 US Open to be her final tournament.[17]
Yanina Wickmayer joined the professional tour in 2004 and reached career-high rankings of No. 12 in singles in April 2010 and No. 61 in doubles in September 2023. She won five singles and four doubles titles. Wickmayer announced her retirement from professional tennis in May 2025, with her final appearances to be at the French Open and Wimbledon.[18]
