Boris Becker was the two-time defending champion, but lost in the second round to Peter Doohan.

Future champion Andre Agassi made his first appearance in the main draw at Wimbledon, losing in the first round to Henri Leconte. Agassi would not compete at Wimbledon again until 1991 due to his disagreement with the All England Club's dress code.
