After entering the 1990s, it was changed to the knockout system again, and in 2003, this trans-European competition returned to the group round robin system similar to the Masters Cup. It is also worth mentioning that the WTA year-end finals of 1984-1998 adopted the best of five games system, which is extremely rare in the history of women's tennis.
