Main article: 2022 WTA Finals

Caroline Garcia defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the final, 7–6(7–4), 6–4 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2022 WTA Finals. Garcia became the first Frenchwoman to win the season-ending championships since Amélie Mauresmo in 2005.[1]

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]
