The Women’s Tennis Association has revealed plans to restructure its professional tour in order to introduce equal prize money at its top-tier events.
On Tuesday, the WTA announced that it will be revising its calendar, with WTA 1000 events set on a “pathway to equal prize money” as it gradually increases before becoming equal with the ATP’s prize money. Combined WTA events are set to offer equal prize money in 2027 while separate WTA 1000 and 500 events will offer the same money as their equivalent ATP events in 2033.
