WTA 125 tournaments are a fair option to collect money and points. They were included in the WTA circuit in 2012 under the title of the Challenger series, a name similar to that of the ATP. They sit just below the top points and money tournaments, but they also offer decent rewards.
This year, Anca Todoni and Jaqueline Cristian prevailed in such singles tournaments, the first in Antalya and Bari, the second in Puerto Vallarta. Among the Romanian players, Anca Todoni and Irina Begu have the most triumphs in these tournaments, with four trophies each. Miriam Bulgaru also has a WTA 125 tournament under her belt, won in 2024, in Bucharest.
In 2025, only three WTA 125 tournaments will be played: in Quito (1-7 December) on clay, in Angers (1-7 December) on hard and in Limoges (8-14 December) on hard.
