Agnieszka Radwańska defeated Petra Kvitová in the final, 6–2, 4–6, 6–3 to win the singles tennis title at the 2015 WTA Finals.[1] This marked the first time since 2005 that the Tour Finals champion did not win a major in the corresponding year.[2]
Serena Williams was the three-time reigning champion,[3] but withdrew due to injury.[4]
Garbiñe Muguruza, Flavia Pennetta and Lucie Šafářová made their debuts at the event.[citation needed]
For the first time since the round-robin format was re-introduced in 2003, both finalists reached the final despite both losing two matches in the round-robin stage.[citation needed] This was also the first, and only, time two players lost 2 round-robin matches and still made it to the semifinals.
This year marked the first time since 2006 that all participating players came from European countries.[5]
