Two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka[1] defeated Zheng Qinwen in the final, 6–3, 5–7, 6–3 to win the singles tennis title at the 2024 Wuhan Open.[2] Sabalenka became the first player to win three consecutive titles at the Wuhan Open, and extended her unbeaten win streak at the tournament to 17 matches dating back to her tournament debut in 2018.[3] The final was a rematch of the 2024 Australian Open final, which Sabalenka also won. One week later, on 21 October 2024, Sabalenka reclaimed the WTA No. 1 singles ranking from Iga Świątek, who lost her fourth round points from Miami earlier this year.
Zheng became the first Chinese finalist in the tournament's history, and the semifinal between Zheng and Wang Xinyu was the first all-Chinese semifinal at a WTA 1000 event.[4]

Seeded players
[edit]The following are the seeded players based on WTA rankings as of 23 September 2024. Rankings and points before are as of 7 October 2024.
Under the 2024 Rulebook, points from one of the three non-combined WTA 1000 tournaments (which include Wuhan) are required to be counted in a player's ranking.[5]
Because the tournament was not held in 2023, the points dropping column reflects (a) the points from the tournaments held during the week of 9 October 2023 (Zhengzhou, Seoul and Hong Kong), (b) the points from a non-combined WTA 1000 tournament or (c) the player's best 18th result. The points won column reflects (a) the points of the 2024 tournament, (b) the player's 18th best result or (c) the player's 19th best result.
