Statistical information

World No. 1 doubles team of Sara Errani (left) and Roberta Vinci (right), winner of eight titles in 2012, dominated the doubles field in early 2013, picking up three titles in two months, including a third Grand Slam trophy at the Australian Open (def. Barty/Dellacqua).^[2]

These tables present the number of singles (S), doubles (D), and mixed doubles (X) titles won by each player and each nation during the season, within all the tournament categories of the 2013 WTA Tour: the Grand Slam tournaments, the year-end championships (the WTA Tour Championships and the Tournament of Champions), the WTA Premier tournaments (Premier Mandatory, Premier 5, and regular Premier), and the WTA International tournaments.^[3] 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) cumulated importance of those titles (one Grand Slam win equalling two Premier Mandatory/Premier 5 wins, one year-end championships win equalling one-and-a-half Premier Mandatory/Premier 5 win, one Premier Mandatory/Premier 5 win equalling two Premier wins, one Premier win equalling two International wins); 3) a singles > doubles > mixed doubles hierarchy; 4) alphabetical order (by family names for players).

Retirements

Following is a list of notable players (winners of a main tour title, and/or part of the WTA Rankings top 100 (singles) or top 50 (doubles) for at least one week) who announced their retirement from professional tennis, became inactive (after not playing for more than 52 weeks), or were permanently banned from playing, during the 2013 season:

Rebecca Marino (born 16 December 1990 in Toronto, Canada) joined the pro tour in 2008, reaching a career high singles ranking of number 38 in 2011. Marino made one WTA singles final (in Memphis) and won 5 ITF titles. Marino took an initial break from tennis in early 2012 citing personal reasons, returning late in the year. She announced her permanent retirement in February 2013, at the age of 22.

Ágnes Szávay (born 29 December 1988 in Kiskunhalas, Hungary) joined the pro tour in 2004, reaching a career high singles ranking of number 13 in 2008. Szávay won 5 singles titles on the WTA tour, including the Tier 2 China Open in 2007, and in the same year, made the quarterfinal of the US Open. She also experienced success in doubles, reaching a career high rank of number 22 in 2007, winning two titles, and making it to the semifinal of the 2007 US Open with partner Vladimíra Uhlířová. Despite being named the WTA Newcomer of the Year in 2007, injuries limited Szávay's play beyond 2011, and she was ultimately forced into an early retirement in February 2013 at the age of 24.
