WTA
Women's Tennis Association (ofte forkortet WTA) er den organisation, der arrangerer tennisturneringer for professionelle kvindelige tennisspillere.
WTA-ranglisten
WTA er ansvarlig for at rangere de professionelle kvindelige tennisspillere efter styrke. Styrken beregnes efter spillernes resultater i pointgivende turneringer, og rangeringen bruges til at seede de bedste spillere i hver enkelt turnering, så de tilmeldte spillere med højeste rangeringer sikres mod at møde hinanden for tidligt i turneringen.
Der vedligeholdes en rangliste for spillerne i single og i double. Disse lister opdateres hver mandag, idet stort set alle turneringer afsluttes på en søndag. Kun afsluttede turneringer medregnes ved opdateringen. En spiller får point efter, hvor langt hun er nået i de enkelte turneringer – jo længere i turneringen, jo flere point. De forskellige turneringer er på forhånd rangeret indbyrdes, så de mest prestigefyldte turneringer giver flere point end knap så prestigefyldte turneringer. Ved den ugentlige opdatering tillægges en spillers opnåede point i den forløbne uge, mens de point, hun opnåede i den tilsvarende måned et år tidligere, fratrækkes.
De mest prestigefyldte turneringer er Grand Slam-turneringerne, der dog ikke arrangeres af WTA, men tæller med i pointregnskabet. Som vinder optjener man 2000 point, mens sejr i de mindst prestigefyldte turneringer (med en præmiesum på op til 10.000 dollars) blot giver 12 point. Visse turneringer giver point blot for at stille op, og i kvalifikationsrunderne til de store turneringer er der også point at hente.
For at komme på listen kræves deltagelse i mindst tre pointgivende turneringer, og omvendt tæller højst 16 turneringer (11 i double).
Rangeringen blev indført 3. november 1975.
