Defending champion Serena Williams defeated Vera Zvonareva in the final, 6–3, 6–2 to win the ladies' singles tennis title at the 2010 Wimbledon Championships.[1] It was her fourth Wimbledon singles title and 13th major singles title overall. She did not lose a set during the tournament.[2] Zvonareva reached her maiden major singles final, and became the second lowest-ranked woman to contest the final.

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

The losses of Kim Clijsters and Venus Williams in the quarterfinals guaranteed a first time finalist from the bottom half of the draw. Petra Kvitová (ranked 62nd) and Tsvetana Pironkova (ranked 82nd), became the first time two unseeded players reached the semifinals since 1999. Pironkova became the first Bulgarian woman to reach the major semifinals for the first time in history.[lower-alpha 1][4] Additionally, Kaia Kanepi (ranked 80th) became the first qualifier to reach the quarterfinals since Séverine Beltrame in 2006.
