Czech tennis player Karolina Muchova claimed the final qualification spot for the 2026 WTA Finals after Marta Kostyuk retired from her second-round match at the Ningbo Open.
Defending champion Elena Rybakina heads the eight-player field alongside Aryna Sabalenka, Mirra Andreeva, Linda Noskova, Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, and Elina Svitolina.
The season-ending tournament will take place at Indian Wells from November 8 to 15 on a one-off basis following the conclusion of the WTA's agreement with Saudi Arabia.
