Active WTA Grand Slam singles champions on the 2025 tour

The WTA landscape in 2025 features 15 active singles players who have captured at least one Grand Slam title. The season has delivered familiar winners and a few shocks: three of the four Grand Slam champions of 2025 were repeat winners, while a surprise new champion lifted the Australian Open trophy and a legend returned to competition.

World No 2 Swiatek is the most decorated active player, a six-time major champion. Her haul is built on Roland Garros dominance, with four French Open titles in the last five editions, plus the 2022 US Open and a stunning Wimbledon victory in 2025.

Hard-court specialists are strongly represented. Osaka has four majors, with US Open success in 2018 and 2020 and Australian Open titles in 2019 and 2021. Current WTA world No 1 Sabalenka has also collected four hard-court majors across recent seasons; she secured consecutive Australian Open titles in 2023 and 2024, and her back-to-back US Open triumphs in 2024 and 2025 made her the first woman in 11 years to defend that title.

A returning legend, Williams, came back to the court in 2025 and remains one of the sport’s most decorated champions. A finalist at all four majors, she is best remembered for five Wimbledon titles and consecutive US Open wins in 2000 and 2001.

Several players on the list made their breakthrough as surprises. Krejcikova captured Roland Garros as an unseeded player in 2021 and added a Wimbledon title in 2024 as the 31st seed. Stephens was among the few unseeded US Open champions when she prevailed in 2017. Raducanu produced an unprecedented run through qualifying to win the 2021 US Open. Andreescu won the 2019 US Open, while Rybakina claimed her first major at Wimbledon in 2022. Vondrousova became the first unseeded woman to win Wimbledon in 2023.

Younger champions include 21-year-old Gauff, a two-time major winner with the US Open in 2023 and the French Open in 2025. Other title holders on tour include Azarenka, Kenin, Ostapenko and Keys, each with at least one Grand Slam singles trophy. The group underlines both the depth and unpredictability of the modern WTA Tour.

Auger-Aliassime Records 100th Week Inside ATP Top 10

Auger-Aliassime reaches his 100th week in the ATP Top 10; he is currently ranked No. 5. Milos Raonic

Felix Auger-Aliassime is celebrating his 100th career week inside the ATP Top 10 as the clay-court major approaches. The Canadian has reached the milestone in four separate stints: November 15th to 21st, 2001 (one week), January 10th to September 11th, 2022 (35 weeks), October 17th, 2022 to June 11th, 2023 (34 weeks) and October 27th, 2025 to present (30 weeks and counting).

Auger-Aliassime is currently at his career-high ranking of No. 5 and joins a small group of players born in the 2000s to accumulate triple-digit weeks in the elite. The draft notes he reached the mark “after exactly who you’re thinking.”

The milestone places him among the longest-serving Canadians to reach the Top 10. He becomes the second Canadian to log that many weeks at the top of the rankings, following Milos Raonic, who spent 151 weeks in the Top 10 across the 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 seasons. Denis Shapovalov is the only other Canadian to have reached the ATP Top 10, spending 10 weeks there across 2020 and 2021.

The pattern of Auger-Aliassime’s tenure in the Top 10—multiple returns to the group rather than a single continuous stretch—highlights his resilience and consistency at the highest level. As Roland Garros nears, the 100-week marker is a reminder of his standing on the ATP Tour and of the depth of Canadian men’s tennis in this period.
