 beat Myskina.

Davenport was the favourite to take her second U.S. Open title, but she was stopped in the semifinals by Svetlana Kuznetsova, who came through a half of upsets which saw Henin-Hardenne lose to Nadia Petrova, and Myskina and Sharapova also lose early. Henin-Hardenne's loss meant that Mauresmo would reach the No. 1 ranking for the first time. On the bottom half of the draw, Elena Dementieva beat Mauresmo and Capriati—who was coming off a controversial win against Serena Williams in the quarterfinals, in a match with several incorrect line calls going against Williams—to reach her second Grand Slam final. In another all-Russian final, Kuznetsova became the third Russian player to win her maiden Grand Slam in a row.

Mauresmo's reign at No. 1 turned out to be short-lived, with Davenport, who won the title in Stuttgart during the fall season, displacing her one month later. Nevertheless, it turned out to be a successful stretch for Mauresmo, who won titles in Linz and Philadelphia. Alicia Molik, won her biggest career title in Zurich and a smaller event in Luxembourg, while Myskina defended her title in Moscow, and Svetlana Kuznetsova won the title in Bali and reached the final in Beijing, losing to Serena Williams. However, it was Maria Sharapova who ended up winning the season-ending WTA Tour Championships, beating Williams in the final, after picking up smaller titles in Seoul and Tokyo, and reaching the final in Zurich.
