Garbiñe Muguruza was the reigning champion, but did not qualify this year.[2][3]
Sabalenka became the fourth player in the Open Era – after Steffi Graf, Venus Williams, and Serena Williams – to defeat the world's top-three ranked players at the same tournament, defeating world No. 2 Ons Jabeur and No. 3 Jessica Pegula in the round robin and No. 1 Iga Świątek in the semifinals. Sabalenka remains the only player who did not win the tournament after doing so.[4]
Jabeur, Pegula, Coco Gauff and Daria Kasatkina all made their singles debut at the event,[5] although this marked the first time since 2012 that no debutant reached the semifinals.
This marked the first time since 2015 where two players won all three of their round-robin matches but were both defeated in the semifinals.[6]
