Iga Świątek defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the final, 6–2, 6–3 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2024 Italian Open. It was her third title at the Italian Open in four years.[1] Świątek was the first woman to win a third title in Rome since Maria Sharapova in 2015, and the youngest (as a 22-year-old) to do so since Gabriela Sabatini in 1991.[2] Świątek did not lose a set or face a tiebreak during the tournament.[3]

This marked the first time that the same players contested the finals of both Madrid and Rome consecutively in the same year (since the women's event in Madrid was created in 2009).[4] This also marked the first time in the tournament's history the Rome final was contested by the top two players in the world.[5] Świątek and Sabalenka were the fifth and sixth players to reach the finals of both events in the same year, after Dinara Safina, Serena Williams, Simona Halep and Ons Jabeur, with Świątek joining Safina (2009) and Williams (2013) as the only women to win both tournaments in the same year.[6]

Elena Rybakina was the reigning champion, but withdrew due to illness.[7][8]

With Świątek, Sabalenka, and Coco Gauff all reaching the semifinals, this marked the first time that the top three women's players in the world all reached the semifinals at the same event since the 2013 French Open, excluding the WTA Finals.[9][10]
