WTA Finals and HQ to move to Charlotte
The WTA Finals are moving to the US city of Charlotte for 2027-29. The tournament, often seen as the unofficial fifth major in women's tennis, takes place at the end of the season and includes the eight best players in the rankings.
The Women's Tennis Association (WTA) Finals, often considered the unofficial fifth major in women's tennis, is set to relocate to Charlotte, North Carolina for the 2027-29 editions. This change comes after the tournament previously took place in Saudi Arabia for the 2024 and 2025 seasons. The finals, which feature the eight best-ranked players in women's tennis, will now be hosted by the Spectrum Center, home to the Charlotte Hornets NBA team.
In addition to the tournament's move, the WTA's global headquarters will also be relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina.
