Players who freeze eggs to get WTA ranking protection
Bangkok Post
|June 13, 2025
Women tennis players who take time out of the game to freeze eggs or embryos will have their ranking protected, the WTA Tour announced on Wednesday.
-
Players ranked from one to 750 in singles or doubles who spend at least 10 consecutive weeks out of competition for a “fertility protection procedure” are eligible.
The ranking can be used to enter up to three tournaments but the policy does not apply to the premier 1000 events.
The special ranking will be based on the 12-week average of a player's WTA ranking from eight weeks prior to the start of their out-of-competition period.
