This article presents in a tabular form the career tennis Grand Slam, World Hard Court Championships and Olympic singles results of every woman who has reached the singles final of at least one Grand Slam, World Hard Court Championships or Olympic tournament (OLY) during her career. The Grand Slam tournaments are the Australian Open (AUS), the French Open (FRA), Wimbledon (WIM), and the US Open (USA).

This article is a compilation of the performance timelines that are included in the numerous Wikipedia articles covering individual tennis players, such as Helen Wills Moody, Billie Jean King, Margaret Court, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, and Steffi Graf. This article facilitates the comparison of the career Grand Slam, World Hard Court Championships and Olympic singles results of each player, particularly of women who were playing at the same time.
