Retirements
Following is a list of notable players (winners of a main tour title, and/or part of the WTA Rankings top 100 in singles, or top 100 in 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 2020 season:
- Mandy Minella (born 22 November 1985 in Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg) turned professional in 2001, and reached career-high rankings of 66 in singles in 2012, and 47 in doubles in 2013. Winner of 2 doubles titles on the main tour (with Tímea Babos), Minella's best results came in WTA 125K events (with 1 singles and 3 doubles titles) and on the lower tier ITF Women's Circuit. She announced she would retire in 2020.
- Carla Suárez Navarro (born 3 September 1988 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain) turned professional in 2003, and reached a career-high ranking of no. 6 in singles in 2016, and no. 11 in doubles in 2015. After coming to prominence by reaching the quarterfinals of the 2008 French Open as a qualifier, Suárez Navarro became a steady top-twenty player, with her best seasons coming from 2013 to 2016. She reached six more quarterfinals in Grand Slam singles events, and won 2 singles titles out of 11 finals (including a Premier 5 title), and 3 doubles titles out of 9 finals (finishing as runner-up of the 2015 WTA Finals in doubles, alongside Garbiñe Muguruza). She announced that the 2020 season would be her last on the circuit.
- Caroline Wozniacki (born 11 July 1990 in Odense, Denmark) joined the circuit in 2005, and reached the world no. 1 spot for the first time in 2010.
