The '''2002 Sanex WTA Tour''' was the elite professional tennis circuit organized by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) for the 2002 tennis season. The WTA Tour calendar comprised the Grand Slam tournaments (supervised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF)), the WTA Tier I-V Events, the Fed Cup (organized by the ITF) and the year-end championships.

New tournaments created for the 2002 season included the [[Proximus Diamond Games]] in Antwerp, Belgium; a new green clay event, the [[Sarasota Clay Court Classic]], in Sarasota, U.S.; and the [[Nordea Nordic Light Open]] held in Espoo, Finland. Another new tournament was created to be held in Aarhus, Denmark, but was later cancelled. Also, the [[French Community Championships]] moved cities from Knokke-Heist to Brussels, and the [[Regions Morgan Keegan Championships and the Cellular South Cup|Kroger St. Jude Championship]] was moved from Oklahoma City, U.S. to a new location in Memphis.

== Season summary ==
[[Serena Williams]] was the outright player of the year, ascending to No. 1 for the first time in July and holding it for the rest of that season. She missed the [[2002 Australian Open|Australian Open]] due to injury, having won her second, third and fourth Grand Slam singles titles at the [[2002 French Open|French Open]], [[2002 Wimbledon Championships|Wimbledon]], and the [[2002 US Open (tennis)|US Open]], beating her sister [[Venus Williams|Venus]] in all three finals. This would lead to her non-calendar Grand Slam (dubbed the "Serena Slam") which she would complete at the Australian Open the following year. Her win–loss record for the year was 56–5. Venus also ascended to the No. 1 ranking in February, and finished the season at No. 2. [[Jennifer Capriati]] defended her Australian Open title to win her third Grand Slam title, after the two she won in 2001.

[[Virginia Ruano Pascual]] and [[Paola Suárez]] were the doubles team of the year, and finished the season as the top 2 on the individual rankings. Their titles at the French Open and the U.S. Open represented their second and third Slam titles together. The Williams sisters won their fifth Grand Slam doubles title together at Wimbledon, and [[Martina Hingis]] and [[Anna Kournikova]] won their second doubles title together at the Australian Open, with it being Hingis' 9th overall.

Former No. 1 [[Arantxa Sánchez Vicario]] announced her retirement at the end of the season, although she returned in 2004 to play doubles tournaments.
