World No. 5
18 of 18 counting slots filled — a new result must beat 65 (National Bank Open).
The results below itemize 5,563 — 120 more than the official total, which cannot happen under a best-18 rule. The official figure is right; the overshoot is ours, from results we price for a bigger draw than the one that was played.

How the count works
The 18 results carrying the ranking, biggest contribution first. 14 slots are mandatory — Grand Slams and WTA 1000s count whatever they scored; the rest are the best remaining results. A result expires 52 weeks after the event ended, so anything played before Sep 2025has already dropped out. Expiring points only cost the total what a replacement result doesn't win back.
