All roads lead to the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global - and the WTA stars competing in singles and doubles this week to cap a stellar 2017 have been documenting every step of their journeys on social media.
Earlier in the week, the singles stars put their wheels up, sharing their travel posts as they descended upon Singapore to end their seasons - and in Caroline Garcia's case, celebrate a birthday!
