In my analysis below, I look at the heights of the top tennis players on the WTA Tour to see what their average height was.
The average height of the top female tennis players turned out to be 5 foot 8 and a half inches or 1.74 meters tall with Karolina Pliskova at 6ft 1in (1.85m), the tallest female player in the top 100, and Lauren Davis at 5ft 2in (1.58m), the shortest female player in the top 100.
Below are the heights that I used to work out the average height of top female tennis players on the WTA Tour.
