Two-time defending champion Pete Sampras successfully defended his title, defeating Andre Agassi in the final, 6–3, 6–4, 7–5 to win the gentlemen's singles tennis title at the 1999 Wimbledon Championships.[1] With the win, his sixth at Wimbledon, Sampras broke Björn Borg's Open Era record of five Wimbledon titles, and equalled Roy Emerson's then-record of twelve major titles. Sampras's victory over Agassi in the final is often cited as one of the greatest performances in a Wimbledon final.[2] However, despite his victory, Sampras lost the world No. 1 ranking to Agassi, who had recently won the French Open.

This tournament is also notable as being the last major in which former world No. 1 Boris Becker competed, and the first Wimbledon appearances for future champions Lleyton Hewitt and Roger Federer.
