Serena Williams won her fifthAustralian Open title, defeatingformer World No. 1,Justine Henin in the final. Williams went on to win her sixthWimbledon title, defeating first-time finalistVera Zvonareva.Francesca Schiavone claimed her maiden Grand Slam title at theFrench Open and becoming the first Italian player to win the Grand Slam.Kim Clijsters won her thirdUS Open, defeating Zvonareva in the final.

The2010 WTA Tour or2010 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour (its sponsored name) calendar comprises theGrand Slam tournaments (supervised by theInternational Tennis Federation (ITF)), theWTA Premier tournaments (Premier Mandatory, Premier 5 and regular Premier), theWTA International tournaments, theFed Cup (organized by the ITF), and the year-end championships (theCommonwealth Bank Tournament of Champions and theWTA Tour Championships). Also included in the 2010 calendar is theHopman Cup, which does not distribute ranking points and is organized by the ITF.

Serena Williams began the season ranked World No. 1, having enjoyed an impressive2009 season in which she won the Australian Open and Wimbledon (she would successfully defend both titles this year) and reclaimed the World No. 1 ranking on two occasions. Williams began her season by successfully defending herAustralian Open title, defeatingJustine Henin in a three-set final.^[1] She also successfully defended herWimbledon title, defeating surprise finalistVera Zvonareva in the final, 6–3, 6–2.^[2]

However, shortly after winning Wimbledon, Serena Williams would injure her foot at a German restaurant where she was celebrating her victory, but it didn't deter her from playing in an exhibition match againstKim Clijsters in front of a world-record tennis crowd that same week.^[3] The foot injury ended up being very serious enough to necessitate surgery,^[4] and as a result she missed the rest of the season and would not return to top-level tennis until June 2011. She was forced to miss her firstUS Open since 2003,^[5] and also had to withdraw from theyear-end championships having qualified by virtue of winning Wimbledon. The injury worsened late in the year; despite accepting a wildcard intoLinz, she had to withdraw from that tournament, with her wildcard entry later allocated to former World No. 1Ana Ivanovic.^[6] Despite progress in her recovery from foot surgery, she lost the World No. 1 ranking to Danish youngsterCaroline Wozniacki. Williams then announced her withdrawal from the2011 Australian Open in November.^[7]

Former World No. 1Justine Henin announced her comeback to the WTA Tour in September last year, in the aftermath ofKim Clijsters' victory at the2009 US Open.^[8] She had previously not played at the highest level since suffering a third round defeat toDinara Safina (who went on to make the final of theFrench Open that year) at the2008 Qatar Telecom German Open. Henin's comeback began impressively, reaching the final of the2010 Brisbane International in which she lost to hercompatriot and rival Kim Clijsters in a final set tiebreak.^[9] She had defeatedNadia Petrova andAna Ivanovic en route. She then reached the final of the Australian Open, in which she was defeated bySerena Williams in three sets,^[1] having defeated fifth seedElena Dementieva in the second round, 27th seedAlisa Kleybanova in the third, qualifierYanina Wickmayer in the fourth, 19th seedNadia Petrova in the quarter-finals andZheng Jie in the semi-finals en route.

She then participated at her firstFrench Open since 2007, where she was defeated in the fourth round by eventual finalistSamantha Stosur, ending a 24-match winning streak at the tournament dating back to 2005.^[10] Prior to the defeat against Stosur, Henin had played her first three-set match at the tournament, also since 2005, when she defeatedMaria Sharapova in the third round.^[11] Later, atWimbledon, Henin again reached the fourth round, but suffered a three-set loss to rival Clijsters.^[12] During the match, she suffered an elbow injury which would later rule her out of theUS Open, that same injury would lead to her second (and final) retirement in January 2011.

The first half ofAna Ivanovic's 2010 season appeared to follow on from her poor2009 season, as her confidence and game continued to disintegrate since she won the2008 French Open. She started the season ranked World No. 22 and spent almost the entire season ranked outside the Top 20. She was able to reach the semi-finals at theBrisbane International and theRome Masters,^[13] but those would be her best results in the first half of the season, as she dropped out of the WTA's Top 50 for the first time since 2005 with a second round loss toAnastasija Sevastova atIndian Wells.^[14] On court results did not improve throughout the year, and Ivanovic dropped to a low of World No. 65 by July.^[15] Adding to a growing season of disappointment, Ivanovic also suffered the ignominy of winning thewooden spoon atWimbledon, having finished at the end of the tournament's longest losing chain after losing in the first round.^[16]

However, Ivanovic would begin to turn her season around at the2010 Western & Southern Financial Group Women's Open, entering the tournament having lost 17 of her last 29 matches dating back to August 2009 and having dropped to World No. 62. A first round upset win over recentStanford championVictoria Azarenka^[17] sparked a run to the semi-finals, where she was forced to retire againstKim Clijsters due to a foot injury; nevertheless, she re-entered the World's Top 40 following her run at Cincinnati.^[18] With no rankings points to defend for the remainder of the year, Ivanovic reached the fourth round of theUS Open, the first time she had gotten that far at a Grand Slam tournament sinceWimbledon in 2009. She defeatedEkaterina Makarova,^[19]Zheng Jie^[20] andVirginie Razzano before being crushed by defending and eventual championKim Clijsters in the fourth round.

Ivanovic continued to maintain her recent good form after the US Open; she was able to reach the quarter-finals inBeijing where she was defeated byCaroline Wozniacki, who eventually replacedSerena Williams as the newWorld No. 1 by winning the tournament.^[21] She then accepted a late wildcard entry intoLinz after Williams withdrew due to her ongoing foot surgery,^[6] where she won her first title in two years after defeatingPatty Schnyder, 6–2, 6–1, in the year's shortest final; the title returned Ivanovic to the world's Top 30,^[22] and qualified her for the2010 Commonwealth Bank Tournament of Champions in Bali. In her final tournament of the year, she defeatedAnastasia Pavlyuchenkova andKimiko Date-Krumm en route to reaching her second final in three weeks, where she defeatedAlisa Kleybanova to win her second title of the year and return to the world's Top 20 for the first time in more than one year.^[23][24] Ivanovic ended her season by winning 21 of her last 27 matches, having lost 17 of her last 29 beforehand.

This is the complete schedule of events on the 2010 calendar, with player progression documented from the quarterfinals stage.^[25]

These tables present the number ofsingles (S),doubles (D), andmixed doubles (X) titles won by each player and each nation during the season, within all the tournament categories of the 2010 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour: theGrand Slam tournaments, the Year-end championships, theWTA Premier tournaments and theWTA International tournaments. The players/nations are sorted by:

1. total number of titles (a doubles title won by two players representing the same nation counts as only one win for the nation);
2. highest amount of highest category tournaments (for example, having a single Grand Slam gives preference over any kind of combination without a Grand Slam title);
3. a singles > doubles > mixed doubles hierarchy;
4. alphabetical order (by family names for players).

To avoid confusion and double counting, these tables should be updated only after an event is completed.
