Two-time defending champion Steffi Graf defeated Jana Novotná in the final, 7–6, 1–6, 6–4 to win the ladies' singles tennis title at the 1993 Wimbledon Championships. It was her fifth Wimbledon singles title and 13th major title overall. Down 1–4 in the final set, Graf won the next five games to win the title; Novotná's devastation at the loss during the trophy ceremony became an iconic image of the Wimbledon Championships.
