# 1999 Australian Open – Women's doubles

Two-time defending champion Martina Hingis and her partner Anna Kournikova defeated Lindsay Davenport and Natasha Zvereva in the final, 7–5, 6–3 to win the women's doubles tennis title at the 1999 Australian Open. It was Hingis' fifth consecutive major doubles title, and she became the only woman to win three consecutive Australian Open titles in singles and doubles simultaneously. Hingis and her partners defeated Davenport and Zvereva for all five consecutive women's doubles titles, starting with the 1998 Australian Open. It was Davenport's fourth consecutive runner-up finish in the Australian Open women's doubles event. This was also Zvereva’s tenth consecutive women’s doubles major final, with three different partners (Gigi Fernández, Hingis, and Davenport).
Hingis and Mirjana Lučić were the defending champions, but chose not to play together. Lučić competed with Mary Pierce, but lost in the first round to Christina Singer and Helena Vildová.
