Marta Kostyuk defeated Mirra Andreeva in the final, 6–3, 7–5 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2026 Madrid Open. It was her first WTA 1000 title and third WTA Tour title overall.

Aryna Sabalenka was the defending champion, but lost in the quarterfinals to Hailey Baptiste. This ended a streak of seven consecutive WTA Tour events being won by the top seeds, beginning at Indian Wells.

Anastasia Potapova became the first lucky loser to reach a WTA 1000 or Tier I semifinal in the format's history (since 1990), and the first Austrian player to do so since Sybille Bammer at the 2007 Indian Wells Open.

With her loss to Kaitlin Quevedo in the first round, Venus Williams became the first former world No. 1 to lose 10 consecutive singles matches since the rankings were first published in 1975.

Seeds All seeds received a bye into the second round.
