Steffi Graf was the three-time defending champion but lost in the first round to Lori McNeil, ending her streak of thirty-one consecutive quarter-final appearances dating back to the 1985 US Open. This also marked the first time in the Open Era that a Grand Slam defending champion had lost in the first round.[2] A defending Grand Slam champion would not lose in the first round again until the 2003 Australian Open. Furthermore, this is the only Wimbledon that a defending champion had lost their opening match in the Open Era.
