The '''2008 Sony Ericsson WTA Tour''' was the elite professional tennis circuit organized by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) for the 2008 tennis season. The 2008 WTA Tour calendar comprises the Grand Slam tournaments (supervised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF)), the WTA Tier I-IV Events, the Fed Cup (organized by the ITF), the year-end championships, and the tennis event at the Beijing Summer Olympic Games.
The season was characterised by its frequent changes in the [[List of WTA number 1 ranked players|world No. 1 ranking]], with [[Justine Henin]], [[Maria Sharapova]], [[Ana Ivanovic]], [[Jelena Janković]] and [[Serena Williams]] all holding the position at onesome point during the season. Eventually Janković finished the season as the world No. 1 player in the world despite not winning a Grand Slam tournament. She did however reach the final of the U.S. Open, and won four tournaments throughout the season.
Four players won the Grand Slam titles. Maria Sharapova won her third major title at the Australian Open, Ana Ivanovic won her maiden title at the French Open, [[Venus Williams]] won her seventh Grand Slam title at Wimbledon, and Serena Williams won her ninth Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open. [[Dinara Safina]] also reached her first Grand Slam final at the French Open, and won four events during the season.
One of the big stories of the year was the shock retirement of Justine Henin on May 14, less than two weeks before she was set to defend her French Open title.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/7399963.stm|title=Henin announces shock retirement|access-date=2010-06-06|date=2007-05-14|workpublisher=BBC News}}</ref> She became the first player to retire while ranked at No. 1 in the world. Henin later returned for the 2010 season.
== Summary ==
[[Justine Henin]] started the season as the No. 1 ranked player in the world. Following her impressive 2007 season and victory at the warm-up tournament in Sydney, she was considered the outright favourite to win the Australian Open. However, she was beaten in emphatic fashion by [[Maria Sharapova]] in the quarterfinals, who then defeated [[Jelena Janković]] and [[Ana Ivanovic]] to win her third Grand Slam title. [[Daniela Hantuchová]] also reached her first Grand Slam semifinal. Sister team [[Alona Bondarenko|Alona]] and [[Kateryna Bondarenko]] pulled off an unexpected title run in the Womenwomen's Doublesdoubles, while [[Sun Tiantian]] teamed up with Nenad Zimonjić to win her first Grand Slam tournament of any kind in the Mixedmixed Doublesdoubles event.
