1972 Virginia Slims Championships
The 1972 Virgin Slims Championships were the first season-ending championships of the Virginia Slims Circuit, the annual tennis tournament for the best female tennis players in singles on the 1972 Virginia Slims circuit. The singles-only tournament was played on outdoor clay courts and was held from October 9 through October 15, 1972, at the Boca Raton Hotel & Club in Boca Raton, Florida in the United States. Fourth-seeded Chris Evert won the title but could not accept the first place prize money of $25,000 as she was not yet 18 years old and therefore was classified as an amateur.
