The WTA Finals 2022 group stage draw: Who faces who?
The top 8 players for the 2022 WTA Finals were divided into two groups of four players each. The two groups have been named Tracy Austin Group and Nancy Richey Group respectively.
World No.1 Iga Swiatek will be joined by 4th seed Coco Gauff, 6th seed Caroline Garcia, and 8th seed Daria Kasatkina in the Tracy Austin Group. The two youngest players in the draw, 21-year-old Swiatek and 18-year-old Gauff, will have a rematch of the 2022 French Open women's singles final in the round-robin stage of the 2022 WTA Finals.
Meanwhile, World No. 2 Ons Jabeur headlines the Nancy Richey Group, and will be joined by 3rd seed Jessica Pegula, 5th seed Maria Sakkari, and 7th seed Aryna Sabalenka. Jabeur has been one of the most successful players this season, reaching back-to-back Major finals at Wimbledon and the US Open. Top-ranked American player Pegula, who has the most wins for any player at the WTA 1000 level across the last two seasons, will make her debut at the event.
Both Sakkari and Sabalenka played last year as well, with Sakkari reaching the semifinals in her maiden Finals appearance in 2021.
