Seeds

The following are the seeded players, based on WTA rankings as of 25 April 2022. Rankings and points before are as of 9 May 2022.[1]

Because Rome is a non-mandatory event, but players must count, if played, at least two non-mandatory WTA 1000 tournaments on their rankings, points will be adjusted the following way:

  • Players who have points from the 2021 tournament counting towards their ranking, will get those points replaced by:
    • The points from the 2022 tournament, if they have less than two non-mandatory WTA 1000 events or 16 total tournaments counting towards their ranking.
    • The points from the 2022 tournament or their 17th best result, whichever is higher, if they have at least two non-mandatory WTA 1000 events counting towards their ranking.
  • Players who don't have points from the 2021 tournament counting towards their ranking, will have their ranking adjusted the following way:
    • The points from the 2022 tournament will be added to the players counting less than 16 tournaments towards their ranking.
    • The points from the 2022 tournament will replace the 16th best result of the players counting less than two non-mandatory WTA 1000 towards their ranking.
    • The points from the 2022 tournament, if higher, will replace the points from the worse non-mandatory WTA 1000 event or the 16th best result, whichever is lower, of the players counting two non-mandatory WTA 1000 events towards their ranking.
    • The points from the 2022 tournament, if higher, will replace the 16th best result of the players counting more than two non-mandatory WTA 1000 events towards their ranking.
