Serena Williams successfully defended her title, defeating Vera Zvonareva in the final, 6–3, 6–2 to win the Ladies' Singles tennis title at the 2010 Wimbledon Championships.[1] She did not lose a set throughout the entire tournament.[2] Zvonareva reached her first ever Grand Slam final in singles competition, and became the second lowest-ranked woman to play in a Wimbledon singles final.

The 2010 French Open women's singles champion Francesca Schiavone and the women's singles runner-up Samantha Stosur both lost in the first round, marking the first time that the two French Open finalists had lost in the opening round of Wimbledon.[3]

This year's women's singles event also saw two surprise semifinalists in Petra Kvitová (ranked 62nd) and Tsvetana Pironkova (ranked 82nd). This was the first time two unseeded players had made it to that stage since 1999.[4] Furthermore, Kaia Kanepi (ranked 80th) became the first qualifier to reach the quarterfinals of Wimbledon since Séverine Beltrame did so in 2006.[citation needed]
