WTA Tournament Levels are divided into:Grand Slam(2,000 championship points, the highest Qi Annihilation level), Gao Ranchong Crown (1,000 championship points), Super Five Tour (900 championship points), Top Tour (470 championship points), International Tour (280 international points).

On July 10, 2020, the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) announced that it would make temporary adjustments and modifications to the singles and doubles ranking system. The WTA rankings are a calculation of a player's recent results, not only to assess each player's position in women's tennis, but also to base each tournament entry and seeding.

Institutional settings. The WTA Tour organization is based in Connecticut, USA.

Stamford in the Southwest.

The tour also has an office in London with its European headquarters. The WTA is governed by a chairman and a board of directors, most of whom are active players, and some of whom are business advisors. The Council advises the Women's Tennis Association, the core body of the sport as a whole.

Like men's tennis, the main responsibility of the WTA is to take care of all the players.

1. Grand Slam.

The four major tennis tournaments hosted by the ITF (International Tennis Federation) are the highest level, with a total prize fund of more than 20 million US dollars, and the winner can get 2,000 ranking points.

Tournaments: Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, US Open.

2. Crown Match.

The highest level of tennis tournament hosted by the WTA also has the highest prize money and points on the WTA Tour, with 1,000 points awarded to the winner.

Correct the mistake upstairs. The four Grand Slams and the Grand Final are not tournaments at any level, and naturally they are not in the category of top-level tournaments.

There are a total of 16 premier races:

1.Four Crown Pearls: Indiana Wells, Miami, Madrid and China Open (Beijing);

2.Super 5: Dubai, Rome, Rogers Cup, Cincinnati and Pan Pacific (Tokyo).

470 Premier Races: Coastal (Sydney), Paris Indoors, Brussels, Eastbourne, Stanford, New Haven, Moscow.

Each WTA Tour event will receive a required number of points according to the player's round, and the ranking of the same period from the previous year will be deducted from the ranking of the new week, which is the point on the standings, and this point is the sum of all the points earned in the WTA competition in the most recent year. Although Safina's ranking has not dropped much, the total number of points is decreasing, and the gap with the players behind is narrowing, while Sharapova did not participate in the competition due to injury in the same period last year, so there will be no point deduction, so the ranking has not changed much. Li Na was deducted from her points for the same period because her Australian Open results were better than last year's (she didn't participate), and her results in later tournaments were worse than last year's, so she dropped her rankings.
