The WTA Finals’ search for a new home has ended for now.
The Tour announced on Wednesday that the 2027-2029 WTA Finals will be held in Charlotte, North Carolina.
At a defining moment for women’s sports around the world, the WTA today announced that Charlotte, North Carolina, will become the new home of the WTA Finals beginning in 2027, launching a new chapter for the Tour’s season-ending championship and its ambition to build the preeminent championship experience in women’s sport.
From the WTA Tour:
“The WTA Finals will be staged at Spectrum Center, home of the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets, from 2027 through 2029, bringing the season’s top singles players and doubles teams together to compete for the most prestigious title in women’s tennis. The multi-year partnership will give the WTA greater opportunity to shape the experience and identity of one of its most important assets, deepen relationships with fans and commercial partners, and build a championship platform designed to grow alongside women’s sport.”
“The WTA Finals represents everything that makes women’s tennis extraordinary: the world’s best athletes, competing at the highest level, on a stage worthy of what they have accomplished,” said Valerie Camillo, Chair of the WTA. “Women’s tennis has spent generations helping push women’s sports forward, and we have an opportunity now to lead again by building a championship experience that reflects just how far women’s sport has come and where it is going next. In Charlotte, we found more than a host city. We found partners who share that ambition and a place where we can build a true home for the Finals and for the WTA.”
