1994 Wimbledon Championships – Women's Singles

Women's Singles
1994 Wimbledon Championships
Champion Spain Conchita Martínez
Runner-up United States Martina Navratilova
Final score 6–4, 3–6, 6–3

Steffi Graf was the defending champion, but she lost in the first round to Lori McNeil. This would be significant as it was her only loss at Wimbledon between 1991 and 1997, and the first time that a Grand Slam defending champion failed to get out of the first round.[1] Apart from this match, Graf reached the quarterfinals of every major she entered from 1985 to 1997.

Conchita Martínez ended up winning the championship, defeating Martina Navratilova in the final, 6–4, 3–6, 6–3. It was Martínez's first and only Grand Slam title, and Navratilova's last appearance in a Grand Slam final.
