Serena Williams: With titles in Brisbane, Miami and Rome, it would be churlish to describe the first half of Williams' season as disappointing. Yet, while it was certainly no disaster, by her own high standards, failures at the Australian Open, Roland Garros and Wimbledon saw the World No.1 head to the hardcourts of North America eager to prove a point. And prove a point she did, willing herself back into form in July and August, before capping off this turnaround by waltzing to a sixth US Open. Williams then followed this up by overcoming a humbling round robin loss to Simona Halep to emerge victorious at the WTA Finals.
Maria Sharapova: Once again, it was Sharapova's clay court brilliance that characterized her season. After a slow start on her return from injury, the Russian finally got her hands on some silverware as the tour made its way to Europe, where she triumphed at three of the four events she contested on the dirt, culminating in a dramatic three set win over Simona Halep in the French Open final. Although she struggled to scale these heights again, Sharapova ended the year in style, derailing the in-form Petra Kvitova to lift the Beijing title and climbing back to No.2 in the rankings.
