WTA Finals is one of the biggest events of the year. The top eight performers of the year clash in the year-end contest. While it’s a high-profile affair with only top players taking part, there’s a relatively colder reaction from the fans.

While everyone expected the fans to flock to the stadiums and ticket prices to soar, it’s exactly the opposite. As the ticket prices are out for the matches, they are shockingly very cheap. Here’s how the fans are reacting to it.
