Martina Navratilova and Lisa Raymond won the title by defeating Cara Black and Rennae Stubbs 6–3, 6–4 in the final.[4]

Hingis first decided to end her career as a 22-year-old in 2003 due to persistent injuries after picking up all five of her singles crowns as a teenager, comprising three Australian Opens, as well as lone Wimbledon and U.S. Open titles from 1997–99.
She retired from singles shockingly early: her final WTA singles match was played at age 21, in April 2003. She had already left an unforgettable mark.
November 30, 2003: Martina & Lisa won the Advanta Championships in Philadelphia earlier this month on November 2. Congratulations, Martina & Lisa!
