The ITF Women's Circuit is the second-tier tour for women's professional tennis organised by the International Tennis Federation, and is a tier below the WTA Tour. The ITF Women's Circuit includes tournaments with prize money ranging from $10,000 up to $100,000.

The 2009 ITF Women's Circuit was a series of professional tennis tournaments organized by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) for female players. These events serve as a stepping stone for players on their way to the WTA Tour, offering ranking points and prize money. Players compete in singles and doubles events at various levels of competition across the globe.

Notable players Many players who participated in the ITF Circuit in 2009 later went on to achieve significant success on the WTA Tour. Some of the notable rising stars at that time included:

Venus Williams and Serena Williams continued to dominate on the WTA Tour, although they didn't participate much in the ITF Circuit in 2009. Ana Ivanović and Maria Sharapova were also higher-profile players on the WTA but remained fixtures in the tennis world. Alexandra Dulgheru (Romania) and Monica Puig (Puerto Rico) were among the young up-and-coming players.
