Further information: 2025 Wuhan Open

Coco Gauff defeated Jessica Pegula in the final, 6–4, 7–5 to win the singles tennis title at the 2025 Wuhan Open.[1] She did not lose a set en route to her third WTA 1000 and eleventh WTA Tour singles title. Gauff became the first player in history to go undefeated in their first nine hardcourt finals.[2]

Aryna Sabalenka was the three-time defending champion,[3][4] but lost in the semifinals to Pegula.[5] The loss ended Sabalenka's unbeaten 20-match win streak at the tournament, dating back to her debut in 2018. By reaching the semifinals, Sabalenka claimed the year-end world No. 1 ranking for the second year in a row.[6]

At the conclusion of the tournament, Ekaterina Alexandrova made her debut in the top 10 of the WTA rankings, becoming the third-oldest woman to do so.[7]
