No. 1 -ranked Iga Swiatek : Athletes not being heard when they express concerns about potential harm to health.

"The tours are not united enough to collaborate without egos and money getting involved," she says.

In 2024 , aside from the four Grand Slams , women must participate in 16 WTA events, up from 10 in 2023 .
