Mirra Andreeva defeated Clara Tauson in the final, 7–6(7–1), 6–1 to win the women's singles title at the 2025 Dubai Tennis Championships. It was her second WTA Tour singles title. At 17 years and 299 days old, Andreeva became the youngest WTA 1000 champion and finalist since the category's inception in 2009.[1][2] She was the youngest player to record wins over multiple major champions in a 1000-level event,[3] and the youngest to defeat three major winners at the same tournament since Maria Sharapova at the 2004 WTA Finals. By winning the title, Andreeva made her debut in the top 10 of the WTA rankings, the first 17-year-old to be ranked in the top 10 in singles since Nicole Vaidišová in 2007.

Jasmine Paolini was the defending champion,[4] but lost in the third round to Sofia Kenin.[5]
