Markéta Vondroušová defeated Ons Jabeur in the final, 6–4, 6–4 to win the ladies' singles tennis title at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships. It was her first major title, second career WTA Tour title and her first title overall since 2017. Vondroušová was the first unseeded woman to win the Wimbledon title, the first to contest the final since Billie Jean King in 1963, and at world No. 42 was the lowest-ranked champion since the WTA rankings were established in 1975. By winning the title, Vondroušová made her debut in the top ten of the WTA rankings.
Iga Świątek and Aryna Sabalenka were in contention for the world No. 1 singles ranking. Świątek retained the No. 1 ranking after Sabalenka lost in the semifinals.
Elena Rybakina was the defending champion, but lost in the quarterfinals to Jabeur in a rematch of the previous year's final. Her loss guaranteed a first-time Wimbledon champion for the sixth straight edition.
Elina Svitolina was the first wildcard to reach the semifinals since Sabine Lisicki in 2011. The match between Vondroušová and Svitolina was the first semifinal at Wimbledon in the Open Era between two unseeded players. For the first Wimbledon since 2009 and the first major overall since the 2013 French Open, the top four seeds (Świątek, Sabalenka, Rybakina, and Jessica Pegula) progressed to the quarterfinals.
The second-round match between Ekaterina Alexandrova and Madison Brengle was the first triple-tiebreak women's match in the Open Era at Wimbledon, and the fourth overall in Grand Slam history. The third-round match between Lesia Tsurenko and Ana Bogdan was completed via a deciding set tiebreak that totaled 38 points, the longest women's singles tiebreak in major history. (This record was broken at the following year's Australian Open when Anna Blinkova defeated Rybakina in a 42 point long tiebreak.)
This tournament marked the first Wimbledon appearance of future champion Linda Nosková, who lost in the first round to Dalma Gálfi, and the final professional appearance of former world No. 2 Anett Kontaveit, who lost in the second round to Marie Bouzková.
