Serena Williams was the two-time defending champion, but she was defeated by 17-year-old Maria Sharapova in the final, 6–1, 6–4. This victory was hailed by the media as "the most stunning upset in memory".^[1] With this win, Sharapova, who would later became a future World No. 1, entered the Top Ten for the first time in her career. She also became the third-youngest girl to win Wimbledon (behind Lottie Dod and Martina Hingis) and the second Russian woman (after Anastasia Myskina) to win a Grand Slam title.

This tournament was also notable as being the last singles Grand Slam that former World No. 1 Martina Navrátilová would ever compete in.
