The WTA Finals will take place from Nov 10-17.

The three teams will join Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova, Shuko Aoyama and Ena Shibahara, Hsieh Su-Wei and Elise Mertens, Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Demi Schuurs, and Samantha Stosur and Zhang Shuai in Guadalajara.

Coco Gauff and Caty McNally and Gabriela Dabrowski and Luisa Stefani had qualified, but the two teams will not be participating at this year’s WTA Finals.


Guarachi becomes the first Chilean to qualify in the tournament’s history. Guarachi and Krawczyk picked up two titles this season, at the Adelaide and the Strasbourg.
Jurak qualified for the year-end finale for the first time in her career, while her partner Klepac will make her third showing at the WTA Finals; she competed in Singapore in 2017 and 2018 with Maria José Martínez Sánchez.

Fichman and Olmos will so be making their debut appearances at the WTA Finals this year after a standout season that saw them win the Internazionali BNL d’Italia title in Rome.

Here is the complete list of qualifying WTA Finals doubles teams:

1. Krejcikova and Siniakova, Czech Republic
2. Aoyama and Shibihara, Japan
3. Hsieh, Taiwan and Mertens, Belgium
4. Melichar, USA and Schuurs, Netherlands
5. Stosur, Australia and Zhang, China
