This is a list of [[Women's Tennis Association]] (WTA) records since its inception in June 1973. Some records additionally extend back a few more years in order to include the immediately preceding [[Virginia Slims Circuit]] era for completeness. The Virginia Slims Circuit started in September 1970 and was replaced in 1973 by the WTA. These however do not make up the entire [[Open Era]] records (1968 – present). For those, see [[Open Era tennis records – Women's singles]].

Sources: Except for the information concerning active players, the source for the all-time table is the '2014 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Official Guide'. Court and Wade began their careers and were winning tournaments long before the Open Era started in 1968; therefore, the statistics shown above do not reflect their entire careers. For example, [[Billie Jean King career statistics#Career finals|Billie Jean King career statistics]] lists 129 career singles titles for King.

This is a list of [[Women's Tennis Association]] (WTA) records since its inception in June 1973. Some records additionally extend back a few more years in order to include the immediately preceding [[Virginia Slims Circuit]] era for completeness. The Virginia Slims Circuit started in September 1970 and was replaced in 1973 by the WTA. These however do not make up the entire [[Open Era]] records (1968 – present). For those, see [[Open Era tennis records – Women's singles]].

Sources: Except for the information concerning active players, the source for the all-time table is the '2014 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Official Guide'. Court and Wade began their careers and were winning tournaments long before the Open Era started in 1968; therefore, the statistics shown above do not reflect their entire careers. For example, [[Billie Jean King career statistics#Career finals|Billie Jean King career statistics]] lists 129 career singles titles for King.

This is a list of [[Women's Tennis Association]] (WTA) records since its inception in June 1973. Some records additionally extend back a few more years in order to include the immediately preceding [[Virginia Slims Circuit]] era for completeness. The Virginia Slims Circuit started in September 1970 and was replaced in 1973 by the WTA. These however do not make up the entire [[Open Era]] records (1968 – present). For those, see [[Open Era tennis records – Women's singles]].

Sources: Except for the information concerning active players, the source for the all-time table is the '2014 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Official Guide'. Court and Wade began their careers and were winning tournaments long before the Open Era started in 1968; therefore, the statistics shown above do not reflect their entire careers. For example, [[Billie Jean King career statistics#Career finals|Billie Jean King career statistics]] lists 129 career singles titles for King.

{{Cleanup rewrite|date=May 2020}}
This is a list of [[Women's Tennis Association]] (WTA) records since its inception in June 1973. Some records additionally extend back a few more years in order to include the immediately preceding [[Virginia Slims Circuit]] era for completeness. The Virginia Slims Circuit started in September 1970 and was replaced in 1973 by the WTA. These however do not make up the entire [[Open Era]] records (1968 – present). For those, see [[Open Era tennis records – Women's singles]].

Sources: Except for the information concerning active players, the source for the all-time table is the '2014 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Official Guide'. Court and Wade began their careers and were winning tournaments long before the Open Era started in 1968; therefore, the statistics shown above do not reflect their entire careers. For example, [[Billie Jean King career statistics#Career finals|Billie Jean King career statistics]] lists 129 career singles titles for King.
